Hartbeespoortdam

By Hartbeespoortdam van die balkon

Staar ek na die ondergaande son

Dis toe dat die son van die berg afval

Tot ver onder in die dal

 

Stadig verander die lug se gemoed

Totdat die stikdonker nag ons groet

Dan spring daar liggies uit die water op

Dat hul skynsel oor die water hop

 

Saggies lê die bote en slaap

En wieg as die windjie gaap

Rustig haal die water asem

En blaas oor die dam sy wasem

 

Soos ‘n tsunamie kom die mis aangerol

‘n golf van mis wat oor my bol

Swaar is die mis so lig soos ‘n veer

So lig dat niemand dit kan keer
