In My Thoughts You Are Wonderfully Lovely (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

It's such a clear open hot summer-day
that every beautiful yesterday is present,
as if I can see your green-brown eyes laugh
where I am missing you terribly,
laughing-doves descend with their fluttering,
hazy the early morning is already full of sun,
the redbreast and the weaver do twitter time and again,
bushes of daisies and verbenas covers the ground,
where in my thoughts you do look like a glorious angel,
every bird do twitter-sing love-songs to its mate,
fluttering the butterflies land on the flowers,
the weaver and wagtail gambol from dawn to dusk,
in my thoughts you are wonderfully lovely and big-eyed
and the sun hangs in the cobalt blue sky heavenly high.
