I Can Imagine Your Company (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Annelize)

Come to me pretty noble woman
the love in my heart is yours alone
and I am setting my life only for you
to bring reality to it.
Outside there are shadows and a tranquil stream
here is bread to eat, wine to drink,
you do bring reality to a wonderful dream
and nothing better than your company I can imagine.
So many kilometres do lie between us,
more than that there is decades that I do miss you,
still when I do think about you my heart does skip a beat
as I do know you like you really are
and you do know me and do know my heart and soul
but without you my whole life is futile.
