Valentine

I taste your sweetness in every fruit
and smell your fragrance in all the flowers
your gentle touch is like the wind and rain
and sun which soothes life's days and hours
you radiant smile is loving and kind
and each day you are my valentine!

Hope

When we are lost, God's love will find us
and when wounded, His grace will bind us
when our prospects are bleak and forlornly
and the paths we walk are steep and thorny
our hope is in God on whom we wait
more than those that watch for the morning.

To my daughter

There passes not a single day
when I do not think of you, or pray
that God's love, steadfast and true,
covers, protects, and abides with you.
And while life's hardships still do come
and the burdens become wearisome,
when uncertainties frighten or scare
and you need help, I'll be there
for I love you more than words can say
just as I have loved you from your very first day.

Grace

O God, the magnitude of your love
is greater than the sum of all my fears
and the comforting warmth of your grace
evaporates a thousand seas of tears.

In Memoriam

The last note in the song of your life has been sung
but its sweet melody still echoes in my soul
and each new break of day displays the brilliance
of your exquisite smile with gentle rays of gold.
Your soft touch can be felt in petals of flowers
and the music of nature rings with your laughter.
Though there are times when sadness and heartache rule,
and challenges seem more difficult and tougher
I know that only time, not distance, separates,
and in the quiet moments of a fast-fleeting life
the sweet memory of you brings contentment great.

Forever

When I am gone and forgotten
and my existence erased
from all living memory;
when my remains
are grounded to dust
I still want something
to remain of me
even a speck infinitely small
to testify to the universe
that I have loved you.

terrorists

under cover of darkness,
while the oshanas were feeding
off the cuvelai
the men from the south came silently
disturbing the tilapia from its gentle sleep.
Suddenly they pounced, and the voices
of the women pierced the night
as they dragged our men
to our sacred places
where they tortured them.

first-born daughter

When you were born
I became a father
and in my heart I discovered
a new type of love
which made me both tender and strong
and through the years
it has motivated and inspired me
to care as much, for as many people, as I could
And though my family and world
has expanded, I just want to say this:
There is nothing in this world that can replace
the joy I felt when you first looked at my face.

Greetings to my children

Though the skies are gray
may your day be bright
and may your tender hearts
be filled with glorious light.
Let the joy which love supplies
shine through your soul and eyes.

Neighbour

O God, Your hands have made me human
but Your love has made me humane
Let me approach each man and woman
and every child without disdain
but filled with Your mercy and grace
I may them as my neighbour embrace.
