Rock of mine

[image error]


Photograph I : Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans


Rock of mine


The left hand holds earth,

universe and timeless eternity.

Nothing to be afraid, of.


The mind is somewhere

out of there; I actually

do not know, where.


The right hand writes

about stories, no one ever

heard, whispered by a silent

wind in your mind.

Nothing special.


In all my thoughts,

one man appears, again,

his name is far, away.


He looked at me,

if I would beat, him one day!

Deep forest Crystal

Deep forest Crystal


I see, when I look into your eyes,

a new light gives and goes.

I see, I know the substance of glass.


Older days have drawn a youth,

in my eyes I did not wonder

but dreamed a lifetime.


Deeper into the forest, I see

belong Crystal candles,

the substance is now, more

than translucency.


I was holding all the guidance,

human not to be recognized.


I have been in knowledge,

the moon shone over one universe.


In eye of a movement,

all of a sudden,

it is a reflection,

a music drum,

a sound without silence.

Across the Hall

Across the Hall

Rita Coolidge – All Time High


It was a pronunciation,

for a new sound

because of an early bird.


In the field,

I have been looking,

ever since.


Every time of all times,

I feel the smell,

I do belong and serve,

although reality is far,

underneath, all ways.


I really admit,

sure to be sure,

I never liked, it,

those interests.


Knowledge, wisdom

and insights are three words

in my very past tense.


It is the spirituality

within the sparks of my spirit.

A difference in time

[image error]


Photograph I : DreamWorks, Spirit, Stallion of the Cimarron (2002)


A difference in time


I tried, tried

to stand up, to rise,

again, on my feet,

by my grounds.


I do not know

I do not understand

the whole situation

because I stand above,

for a long time, now.


I raised, a newborn child,

my head touches light

above and across all clouds,

rains, laughter of sunshine

and rainbows.


I have forgotten,

the memory of all memories.

Mind of mind

Photograph I : Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans


Mind of mind


It was a long time, ago.


I entered the village.

Later, by my own will

and possession.


I paid, my bills,

from a distance.

In silence.


In those days,

I wondered if you

would ever care.

You did.


When I came Home,

late at night,

no one said,

something.


All those years,

you did what

was expected.

Name of the story

[image error]


Photograph I : Bryan Adams, Hans Zimmer – Spirit, Stallion of the Cimarron


Name of the story


My grandfather explained a difference

between taking care of and how to take care for.

There would be a difference.


As he stood close, nearby my body,

he taught me the wisdom of his forest,

by silence.

Some people, children of parents,

read it all, in books.


Along the way,

he touched my spirit

by his sweet, soft hands.

He asked me, after fifteen years,

my name because he had forgotten.


But I could not tell him,

my first name or family name.


It is namely and rarely found,

somewhere in lost, lost hands.

In the night, a silent whisper

sounds between his trees, high up

in his forest.


In clouds, no such darkness

was to be seen while I noticed,

the turn, my eye, above all heads.


Down, on the ground, I felt

as if the wind could not reach,

out to.


All the time,

waters underneath my sky

have pronounced

a silent and decent walk.

To have my tea

Vanessa Williams – Colors of the Wind


He waited and asked me,

about my poetry, what I did not understand.


His wife looked at me.

They had a nice, beautiful

and cosy toilet room.

His wife left, so we worked together.


He gave me his interests, of his life.

I never knew him, but he was the best friend

of my teacher, who taught me how to read and write.


She said something, to her husband.

Then, he looked at the photographs

of my class.

I was drinking my tea.

Whitest documents

Photograph I : Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans


Whitest documents


From a distance, it is not far away

nowhere nowhere somewhere land is a country.


In combination of details, all of this place

I have seen the oldest insects around my globe.


I think, movies, books and paintings are shitty.

I could not find a harder or worse word, to describe it.


Anyway, I have my way of being nice, kind and the best.

In time, I will be there, or not, it depends on the job.


Rumours have been going on, a wizard is not that good.

I learned to read and write, when I was six years and I had


a good teacher who was severe but not kind enough to prevent me from

talking, joking and laughing because of your worldwide dominance attitude.

A small hidden bridge

[image error]


Photograph I : The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957)


A small hidden bridge


I have seen a lot of cultures, a lot of people

streets, roads, houses, children and dreams.


I have seen a lot of people who have left Home.

I can not tell you, how sorry, I feel for giving in.


In my evolution, I walk a new future in nature

where I see a small hidden bridge, my eyes of passion.


I walk during the morning, the afternoon and evening

since I learned to walk again, so slowly and bright, I admit.


I do not regard my age as ageless but when I saw my story

along a new story, I had to write about a strong mentality.


The soul has always been stronger than the body, how strange

the stranger in your strange ways has felt more than house and home.

Before the waters

[image error]


Photograph I : A.A. Milne (1882-1956) – Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet and Tigger


Before the waters


On my left hand, old books had been guarded.

On my very right hand, a chair holds the night.


My feet had new clothes, so did my hairs.

My head guided the windows, warm, cold

wind and a new wave of airs.


In the middle of the night, I needed more space.

The breath I had in mind, was enough for two hours

and a half, and I knew the Jews had a broken limb.


Eight months are not that bad, and a next year after

the first one, would be easy to overcome, a photograph

lasts longer than three nights on the couch of a summer river.


A difference is between pigs, I could have known, it.

On that day, I found hope again, over and over, again.


Piglet is just a pig, you can think that your way, but I

can tell, that it was worth trying, to stop her from crying!
