Somebody asked to create a poet for an organisation. I agreed without any hesitation. It had to be about nature. So the subject feels ‘close to home’, because that’s what I did before. ‘It has to be a new one’, she said. Well….. that’s more complex, because I cannot organise poetry on command.

As a matter of fact nature has to catch me. Today I saw a bush with red berries. And immediately I started my writing in Dutch (sorry)

ENJOY !

Vandaag zag ik in rood en groen

een wereld vol van zomer

een belofte, die leek als toen

toen jij keek, gelijk een dromer

het bracht de eerste zoen
