Two Balassi Stanzas.
A Promise
Into the night so young, a poor bird sang a song, -about wanders and delight, Of Madeline's so fine and rosemary's and thyme. -Charming smells it will invite the splendour of my love and everything thereof. -All Life's spice I shall provide Toward the night so dark, journeys we will embark, -and the memoirs we shall grew, together stride this trail, delayed I shall prevail. -for that light we shall pursue. As long as there is hope, the reason is to cope, -and the motive must be you. |

| I love the structure of it but moreso the layers, this is like a rose that unfolds and slowly releases its fragrance. Baie geniet dankie dat jy dit met ons deel. | Posted on 2011-06-22 00:00:00 | by Clayman | [ Reply to This ] | As long as there is hope, | the reason is to cope, -and the motive must be you. As long as there is hope, i will stand by you as long as there is hope, i will carry you as long as there is hope, i will provide for you as long as there is hope, i will encourage your as long as there is hope, i will protect you as long as there is hope, i will carress you as long as there is hope, i will exalt you as long as there is hope, i will cover you as long as there is hope, i will comfort you the reason is to extend time the reason is to do the impossible the reason is to think the unthinkable the reason is to give the ungivable the reason is to get the uncontainable the reason is to do the impossible the reason is to give the spice of life the motive is you *Couldn't have imagined a better love than this. | Posted on 2008-08-12 00:00:00 | by lily21 | [ Reply to This ] | Your ending was perfect. "-All Life's spice I shall provide -and the motive must be you" captures the essense of love. I'd say this poem's quite romantic and one that would be most appreciated by the person for whom it may be written. Beautiful!

Ek hou daarvan want dis oprreg en kom uit die hart. Dit lees gemaklik en as ek dit nie korrek het nie, nogtans uitstekende werk Joachim. | Well done it is tops. I like it very much. In die aandskemer van julle lewe sing `n arm man `n lied Met wandelinge en genietinge saam met Madeline fyn Met die kruie geure .....van liefde betowerende geure sal dit bring Die rykheid van jou liefde Die lewens kruie nodig Sal jy bring die aand het ver gevorder stap julle die lewe verder in gedagtes en herinneringe Samesyn saamgesnoer deur die lewe op `n vertraagde- uitgestelde lewens reis Jou en jou geliefde nou oppad na die Lig - beter dae solank julle hoop in mekaar bly - liefde nie verflou nie is daar rede om met julle doel te slaag Want die rede vir jou hoop is sy. | Posted on 2008-01-22 00:00:00 | by Joachim | [ Reply to This ] | Ek probeer nog die een.
