In the words of God

In the words of God that are written forever
there are promises
and that book has got a type of bright light,
it is full of Godly vows
that always satisfies all of my needs
and it is not devoured by either moths or rust,
for all my sins He carries all of the costs,
there is nothing that can destroy His words,
His great loves stays selfless and sincere,
every omen is absent from what He says.

Daily You protect

Daily You protect, You are our defence,
daily Your almighty hand is stretched out
as Your love surrounds us selflessly, Lord,
although at times we are covered by sin
still You draw the lines of our lives much wider
as You have paid the ultimate price,
and You are with us at every dangerous place
as we wait on You to come and fetch us,
You can stop all pain and darkness
and all of nature sings to Your glory.

This summer has grown old

This summer has grown old
when I suddenly found you,
when your eyes looked deep into my heart,
soft like those of a child
and now we are exclusive;
outside the autumn wind is blowing
thoughtless without a motive
as desires wants to devour us.

Your beauty is no secret

Your beauty is no secret
that somebody can brush aside
you have sympathy with car guards
who do protect properties,
the need of hungry children
you want to touch;
sometimes you deny that you are pretty,
but everyone notices it.

In the vastness of the desert

In the vastness of the desert
the landscape disappears in the distance,
while the sun roasts everything,
while continually its shines bright and mercilessly.

When the southeaster really starts to blow

When the southeaster really starts to blow and jerk,
then white horses gallop down in the bay,
then bricks and oak trees are plucked out
when even big ships are tossed to and thro
and pine branches swing up and down,
when doves hide beneath roofs for the rain
and the people of Cape Town have barbeques in their homes,
when it feels as if the cold wants to turn you to stone,
as if the whole of nature is suddenly crying
and then I want to go to somewhere else.

Early in the morning when the sun just appears

Early in the morning
when the sun just appears over the hillocks,
when the guinea fowl call from the field,
then I see him
with his crooked walking stick chewing biltong
and the morning is dumb,
pure like an angel is his company;
before he disappears between the green maize stalks.

I love you with the feelings

I love you with the feelings,
the silent power
that comes from the depths
of the heart of a man
 
and although you life beyond the horizon,
in a world that is miles away,
thoughts bring you at times
to here close to me.

I have loved you (Strambotto Romagnuolo)

I have loved you during each summer’s day,
though age now comes with years far too suddenly
nothing existing can take our feelings away;
in the times of hardship you have been friendly,
have brought light and brightness to every shade,
your beauty comes from the heart and will not fade
its great power springs from love that does not decay;
in winter your smile is like a summer’s day

Diving board

A stairway wounds up to a springy height
where my body reaches high against the blue sky,
the pool’s is small against my eye,
where I stand in contemplation
 
while gravity binds with balance
but with a exceeding kind of rocking
before highly sprung power has to sway
when I bounce up and down in movement
 
and suddenly become a projectile that launches
powerful from up high
with a planned, calculated arch
and I am cleaving the air in a single moment
 
and when I dry myself a bit later,
I want to aspire to for better attempt.
