My Love, Today You Called Me (Sicilian Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

Of people who charm each other I have not a clue,
their ways are like mist that evaporate like steam,
as they temp destiny, in heartache at times scream,
where this life holds you to what you say and do.

My love, today you called me out of the blue,
at times it feels as if you are only in a dream,
luckily life with you is reality and not as it seem
where always I know that honestly you are true,

Yet beyond principle love to me is a mystery,
something in which you lead me by the hand.
I do not know how tomorrow is going to be
but in faith, trust and hope together we stand,
do know each other intimately in sincerity
where we are living in a cruel and joyful land.
