When She Enters (English Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

When she enters she does the men stir,
lovely, kind and sharp with wit is she
as if the angelic beauty was lend to her
that almost holy and serene she might be.

Her smile is kind and picture perfect fair
kindness and her beauty comes from within
her countenance is crowned by silky hair
and to look at her sometimes feels like sin,

she seems beyond a mortal human being,
love fills her eyes with single-mindedness,
while excelling in great joy she does sing,
it's as if she does struck me with blindness

while her big eyes are full of intense love,
and our true feelings no one can remove.
