When The Moon Rises Golden-Yellow Outside (Free Verse Sonnet)

(in answer to Johann de Lange)

When the moon rises golden-yellow outside
then constantly I think about you
where I summarise the whole day for God,
it’s then that I do remember you in prayer,
do bring everything in my heart to Him,
and with Him talk about everything in depth,
also about where my heart does sing about you,
so I talk until the late hours come,
where I keep entrusting you to Him,
where He knows how precious you are to me
and I ask that the angels must protect you,
that He must lead you in times of darkness
but more that our love should stay sincere,
that He constantly does step in between you and me.
