Late afternoon the Karoo-sun battles
with trees and leaves

Umber oaks 
Toss their burdens on the ground
Undulating sky black and white
Mirror my emotions as winter

The morning after
Three days of incessant rain
The air is vibrant
Pools of water on the ground
A slight stirring of earth sounds

A path to the moon

A soft whisper
Two gentle hands
Light footsteps on the ground
A moonlight that appeals
As you follow it
On the path to the moon.

you made me happy singing there -
but now, you don't make a sound,
lying sideways on the ground.
