Little boy, Beautiful child
The world is your embrace
All is light and fearlessness
While untamed animals dance with you
...

Dark blue swells of watery mountains
Hold tears from a thousand eyes,
And collapse in a great crash of white,
As they skid and hiss towards the shore shining
...

Who's Next?

She's blond and blossoming young
She's a black doctor and drives a car

Ode to the Arts by Sheryl Deane
Open the book and page through time
Our history captured first hand
By the pen of an artist, the stroke of a brush
...

Give me an ocean to swallow
And I will follow that wave
Riding high in the wind and rain
Balanced on illusion
...

The Past
Grows into the present
Like a bold flower, it
Opens
...

(KommetjieCape Town- January 2009)

Why lie in the shallows little whale?

I DREAM OF WINTER

I dream of winter
Where the wild winds blow
...

Joyful singing fills the air
Sun rises over ancient farms
Birds chorus together with a happy song
Flying from tree to tree, and skipping branches
...

A world of lily's float
Under an old wooden bridge
Etched in her soul
Imagined on her palette
...

Has religious ceremony replaced love?
Has selfish gain replaced kindness?
Has greed replaced world order?
...

A Soldiers Christmas

Little children gather round,
Christmas lights are shining.
...

A gloomy day awaits the runner
Shivering, his restless eyes focus
Far ahead, to a distant summer
