When together we do awake to another bright day <br />there is something special to the morning <br />while outside the dogs do barking play, <br />the train in the distance hoots out its warning <br /> <br />and I wonder if this kind of sheer bliss <br />that away our breaths for moments do take, <br />that we find in every kiss, is the way it is, <br />to every other couple that do awake <br /> <br />and our love does constantly something more seek, <br />as daily into the busyness of life we do embark <br />and something of it is present in every day and week <br />as it remains constant like a set mark <br /> <br />and in times of heartache and pain it does remain <br />as more depth, compassion and power it does gain.<br /><br />Gert Strydom<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-together-we-do-awake-to-another-bright-day-english-sonnet/
