Here You Do Turn My Life And My Days Around (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

When I come to you as your bridegroom
my heart sings a song of love to you,
you do take me to places far past sorrow
when you leave me dumbstruck as my darling,
when darkness and night by themselves come together.
Your eyes shine like stars in the far-off distance
and all other things disappear in the naught
as here you do turn my life and my days around,
where everything by own accord flow into each other,
when the veldt are white and in pastel colours with cosmos,
your face is soft and veiled as if by fog,
while you do fascinate me in the morning, at noon and in the evening,
where I almost go into a kind of dream world
where love is something holy, intimate and sincere.
