The Moment When The Sun Disappeared On Its Way Poem by Gert Strydom

The moment when the sun disappeared on its way
into the blue ocean,
when somewhat early the bells tolled for the hour of prayer
and he had smeared the last putty onto the window
he was caught.
for moments that almost felt like an eternity.

Her emotions was mixed
and in astonishment they did stare at each other,
while they were aware of the golden radiance
that the sun was tossing from horizon to horizon.

When she waited on him in the door frame,
stars did sparkle in her eyes
while he planted the seeds of happiness and sadness
deep in her heart.
