When Love Between Us Do Come To A Plenitude Poem by Gert Strydom

When love between us do come to plenitude
then time and again you astonish me
when the night does stretch out long between us,
while we are with each other until sunrise,

when we do know the depth of each other's wishes and desires,
without words do for moments reconnoitre new horizons
and we are indissoluble part of each other
and yet I do wonder
if victorious our love can win death?

Will we know in the eternity
about the things that do bind us, without forgetting
that God Himself is the lightning between us
and wherever we do go, we stay a part of His decree?
