Silent respect

Silent respect
Lost men laugh nervously, look different.
The way up to heaven is beautiful.
Here, I have my place after more than
five years, reality and spirituality are one.
I know him, I saw him and he knows it.
Every day, we talk, in silent respect.
It is one laugh a day, it is a joy that means
the world in my universe, to me and Michael.
His dog waves in a wind, you cannot feel, you
should try to listen to, because it is more than a word.
The dog rules the world, in the middle of the night.
Do not say, I love him.

Great reliance
Great, greater, greatest.
Language is something, to be learned
at school.
After that, it is All, because of James.
It is tasty, sharp lemon bites, you say
but After Eight has a different shape.
It is all in his looks, it is all in his books
he was the one who started, and should not to.
He had a struggle on the carpet, a movie
it is funny when it was not my choice.
I do not remember, one myth.
More than reality, it whispers in comfort.

A man’s world
James Brown. Brown.
Brown becomes white and white is black.
Sorry. Excuses.
Excuse, me.
I had those images, for the first time.
Nice soft paintings of Monet.
I had those voices, yelling and screaming
at my door but babe, it is a man’s world.
And then again, since more than 12 years
young girls and women, raped, tortured,
to Hell. Abortion, broken families
and lost crowns.
It is not longer than twelve years.
You say, you believe me, as I believe you.
One dude a day makes a difference.

The last passenger

The last passenger
He kneeled
for the time
of his Holy Service.
I watched his walk
in the light
of an empty church.
I could feel and I can see,
when someone is not present.
It is beautiful as a task
has been given, badly needed.
I do not think
I may not accept,
the name of a miraculous story,
for it is not important in that way.
I remember, our time of tea and light,
as if, it was yesterday.
Age is not a realistic letter
and I understood,
without my love,
that I would always wait
until the last passenger
is safe on board.

Late at night
all moments pass
her body, her hairs
and soul, without
a sense of meaning.
On the streets, the attitude,
the way of her walk and clothes;
it is All gone.
I do not think
it felt so good.
You think, you know it all so well.

Moment in time
You think, I have it all clear.
I have no time, or the luxury,
to think, about it.
You think, it is an honour,
a grace, a special faith.
Realism knows all the rules
in our universe.
It is, in my nature
I can understand
that my spiritual poetry ticks
just like one Clock,
can not nor shall be heard.
The time is All
in the Hands of a woman
who starts her day
in the brightest and beautiful curled letter
of human ages.
It is a matter of listening
to a sound.

Last appointment

Last appointment
It was a lawyer,
or a judge.
He failed his own failure,
in spite of the word of wisdom.
It was no teacher,
schools do not teach knowledge
in this kind.
It is no ruler, but the greatest Dictator,
of All.
You have to do, it in a good, sincere
and proper way.
We agree, we have one appointment.

Photograph I : Tilburg, Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans, the Netherlands
In my name
I am on my way
I never needed
an airplane, a car
or starship.
I look, outside of,
my window and I see silently,
my Crystal Ball.
I was driving in the train
for the next railway station.
I am looking forward
but I do not think,
I see you, there.
I do not think, so.
Outside the window,
a beautiful peaceful landscape
glorifies the bright colours
of the clearest light in my soul!

Yellow level

Photograph I : Tilburg, the Netherlands, Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans
Yellow level
Nearby, closely not close, to the river
between, not very in between, trees and bees
a yellow level shines above
a silent fountain.
A white fountain is not there, any more.
Somewhere, one man lost his bench.
Around the river, sounds disappear and return
easy as the morning light become silver & golden
in eyes of blue diamond hands
that do not comfort a story of stories
but were and are the strength
a man can lose his mind in a yellow river.

In his presence
[image error]
Photograph I : St. Willibrord Church, Berkel-Enschot, the Netherlands
In his presence
One statue in my spiritual life,
is more than a statue.
I do not know or understand
who started to talk.
In the shadow of a small room,
he is still, always there for me.
Ages and moments
of minutes and hours are timeless.
I swallowed a complete generation,
as I listen to his silent and modest gestures.
It is more than a spiritual energy.
It is one painting of the most beautiful music.
It is more than one wish.
It is a lifetime that has been released
by two simple, peaceful and harmonious hands.

Let's talk about love.
Let's write about religion.
