Morne Van Dyk Poem
Empty spaces, filled with broken places and faces
As I count the paces between these once beautiful places
I notice that I am trapped in a hollow, draining, unrelenting stasis
A vortex of sorrow, that makes the soul forever wallow
Once kind souls able to cherish, now filled with snarls able to perish
With pointed remarks so cold, lays waste to the one who shall behold
Angled gazes turned away, now giving praises to the one once claiming betray
On a lonely summers day, with good reason, decided to stay away
The ignition to the source, of a volatile resource
Without any recourse, pointlessly hoping for a sign of remorse
As he ponders his unexplained treason, he struggles to find reason
For once was hailed as a star, now left adrift, no rig or spar
As he finds his own way, dawn brings the promise of a new day
As we strive for a better tomorrow, we get approbation for wisdom we appropriate and borrow
Yet situations go amiss, leaving us flummoxed and perplexed wondering in an abyss
But we all get up some day, feeling stronger and seeking a new way
Finding that providence, will renew our confidence

Morne Van Dyk Poem
A beautiful mind, one of a kind
Kept alone, river of love as dry as a bone
Hidden from society, protected from it's immoral notoriety
With no purposed intent, a conversation with unexpected extent
An act best described as divine, two lonely souls intertwine
Causing apprehension at first, both groomed to expect the worst
An explosion of attraction, fulfilment and soulful satisfaction
Perfectly calculated chemistry, flawless like an act of wizardry
Forged from lonely contemplation, defences destroyed by recent reflection
Most priceless gift of hope, hastened by the hart's grope
Reignites a forgotten fire, once fueled by lustful desire
Now an untainted yearning of late, for the soul's perfect mate
With the splendor of honesty, the most wonderful dream a possibility
With distance the test, love will conquer with no contest
A Fairy tale unfolds, with the best still untold
A lesson on what we can achieve, when we are willing to BELIEVE.
