Ek het ‘n huisie by die see ~ H. A. FAGAN
Ek het ‘n huisie by die see. Dis nag.
Ek hoor aaneen, aaneen die golwe slaan Beeldspraak:
teenaan die rots waarop my huisie staan Personifikation
Vergelyking
met al die oseaan se woeste krag. Klanknabootsing
Binnerym
Ek hoor die winde huil – ‘n kreun, ‘n klag Alliterasie
Metafoor
soos van verlore siele in hul nood Sintuie
al dwalend, klagend, wat in graf en dood
geen rus kon vind nie, maar nog soek en smag.
My vuurtjie brand, my kersie gee sy lig.
Ek hoor dan maar hoe loei die storm daarbuite,
ek hoor hoe ruk die winde aan my ruite;
hier binne is dit veilig, warm en dig.
Kom nag, kom weer en wind, kom oseaan -
dit is ‘n rots waarop my huisie staan.
