You Are Like Aphrodite To Me (|free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Annelize)

Your words did somewhere in a place in my heart stop
and the mystery of what you say and are did knock on my heart
when like an angel emblazed with light with love you came to me
and still thoughts linger constantly in my mind and I am without words
as I have found you as a eternal precious one
and your voice, your fragrance is even in the wind
but when I do have no contact with you
where I am seeing I am totally blind
as you are like Aphrodite to me and totally matchless
and the thing that people call love is to me without borders
as when you came out of the water at the bright sea
and with love and longing I am at times defenceless
where I do stand totally alone and are waiting on you,
do hanker after an undetermined day and your pure laughter.
