In His Study Poem by Gert Strydom

In His Study

In his study sometimes
my dad did Afrikaans poems read
while he was busy with graduate studies
at the University of South Africa
while he was a Afrikaans and history teacher
and as a little boy
the great words,
the tone of his voice
and his sincerity did speak to my heart
but in my subconscious
all of those wonderful poems do still remain
as if they had been etched into the depths of my soul,
as if there is something great to very great words.
