I Believe God Helps Whatever Does Happen (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

With daybreak the sun has a tangerine colour
where it looks like a much hotter winter-day.
Just two days ago I had to block an iron-pipe
and the morning-breeze carries the fragrance of rain
but I believe God helps whatever does happen
and the birds outside sing their praises to Him,
where I look at rosebuds that are opening
but here in my thoughts you are in your prime.
It's disturbs that black robbers do come during the day,
stop with a white Nissan-car outside and just walk in
where the three do rob me and without a disguise
one of them hit at me with an iron-pipe.
Where I am missing you and your love do leave me speechless,
I do not understand the will of God in all of this.

[Poet's note: I will not write politically correct where there is oppression, injustice or any kind of evil.I have been reprimanded before by using colour where it comes to people.I am writing factually correct when I write and tell the absolute truth as it really is.There had been three black men in the robbery.I am 56 years old, my mother 86 and her sister 92.One of the black men jerked the 92-year-old lady around.The exact words to my mother by one of the other black men were: "White woman shut-up or I will smash your head until you are dead."His exact words to me were: "White-man I am going to kill you."For a full description of what happened during the robbery read my poem:
