Written On Tablets Of Gold Hidden In My Heart Poem by Sarah Mkhonza

This poem unfolds on a church bench,
Where the tablets of gold lay. Laying 0pen
On my side when I look I see only this.
A word God has sworn is about me also,
For I had been let loose to try my hand
On opening the book to the chapter where
Love is written about on tablets of gold.

I open the pages of my heart and let in
The warmest rays of gold, to cast a rich halo
Making mine a tiara richer than that of royals,
For it is written in hidden walls where only
The bravest of souls care to dig.

My joy rings out larger than the jealousy of lasses
Who also want this love sworn to be mine, in front of
The servants of the gods, who brought the light that
Opened my doors and left them ajar on the day man reached
The planet where we were to live all by ourselves.

How I long for the hand that dug into mine, and
left me touching this word in this on love.
Believing in the sun has had me sweating while I
Cry inside for the dear one to write the story of
Love for me.For thesethe tablets of gold in my heart,
Keep longing for more.
