Condensing You
if I had only a few lines to describe you
what words would I use
condensing you?
i cannot write you without me
in you:
burning brightly as collateral rubies
instigating each other's hearts
we touch with isochronal sparks
oh! how my blood becomes icy
with redhot shivers of purity's chills
whispering madonna
covered serenely with veils
of silvery silence
my eyes shimmer the quartz
of your pupils
hidden by arum lilies
crossed swords
upon breast's valleys
a choral smile
is singing of you lips
and of your holy hands
myra
Terugflits
as ek jou moes skryf
watter woorde word sterlig
binne my vers?
ek kan jou nie dig
tot denke
sonder die sielspraak van my lyf
heldergloeiende bloedverwante robyne
aanhitsende harte
versmelt tot isokroniese vonke
pols ysig
met witwarm rillings van suiwering
wek madonna-geprewel
binne sluiers van sidderende stilte
gloei my oë die kwarts
van jou kykers
agter aronskelke
se beskermend swaarde
oor die valleie van borste
kurf my mond 'n koraal-glimlag
wat van jou lippe
sing
en van jou heilige hande
myra
Reading your poetry is a unique journey that I always enjoy!
The work of a true artist! Oeg! Dit is so mooi!
