"My Imagination" by Maddy

This poem was read by Maddy at PW's first poetry evening at Ashbee's wine bar. Afrikaans followed by the English translation.The evening was international in flavour to reflect the diversity of the city of London. We had a packed house with entertainment in the form of poetry, music and comedy.

"My Verbeeling"

Ek het gesit en gedink,
Dit is soos dit is,
Soos dit was,
Soos dit altyd sal wees.

As die laast sonstrale ondergaan,
Wanneer die bome staan en hulle blare afval,
So droom ek.
So wonder ek.

Wys my die kleur
Die kleur van jou Siel
Wys my die kleur
Die kleur van jou Hart

Ek sit en dink
Dit is soos dit is,
Soos dit was,
Soos dit altyd sal wees.

"My Imagination"

I sat and I thought,
It is like it is,
Like it was,
Like it always will be.

As the last rays of sunlight disappears,
When the trees stand tall and the leafs fall down,
I dream.I wonder.

Show me the colour
The colour of your Soul
Show me the colour
The colour of you Heart

I sit and I think
It is like it is,
Like it was,
Like it always will be.
