Tink, your native tongue comes through loud and clear in this piece, Thank you for translating it for us. These lines are the things romance novels are made of. This is romantic, sensual, and erotically surreal. Thank you for sharing this.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

I like that you've written it first in Africaans (I think it is Africaans) and then translated for us. It should give you a few more avenues and a bigger reach. A very longing poem. I hope you do get to see them again. ~ Sara

Breathtaking to say the least Tinka, you captured the sad yearning that follows a magic moment in time and keeps dreams alive that someday may come true.

Bless you, Tinka. This is unique in its sentiments and yet universal in its longing... well, as "universal" as any unique love can be! I adore the dialect. I don't know Afrikaans yet the words swirl round my lips and mind in a tantalising way... like speaking in tongues! Very releasing to the emotions, to let the mind be free and just go with the feel and sound of the words. I'd like to read more in your dialect. Great to see you posting again! :)) Love, Kate xx
