A whitely gloom

A whitely gloom


I touched

my personal family members,

the way

I was a child.


They never looked,

back, in those days.


In silent comfort,

we sat close.

I have been writing

stories, ever since.


The way I came,

the way I am.


From a far distance,

no distance

has to be seen.


Silently, I preserve,

that what I

reached out for,

not wanted, not

really wished for

but glad, I knew

it all the Time.

The high cylinder

The high cylinder


I look sharp,

balanced, one way,

my days.


Without a pair of glasses,

the morning air is clear,

cleaner than the light.


I know, you could

not see the difference,

between light and darkness.


All along, people around me,

stand with me, in

the smallest gestures.


It is in an attitude

that does not recognize

the fulfillment of emptiness,

or weakness.

It would not be a legitimate excuse.


It is all, so very, simple,

what I give.

Inspiration is an idea, suddenly

she is there, all of a sudden!


My acceptance is not a merit,

or respect.

Words are too fantastic.


I wonder how I walk my words.

licht en aarzelend werd als de zon op een mistige dag?”

Rhythm of nature

[image error]


Photograph I : Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans


Rhythm of nature


I respect nature

equal to my words,

and something more.


Slowly, I came

to earth and saw

her beauty,

now, forever.


Happiness is a

silent heartbeat,

I hardly control.


I started to write

but it is not

the main-title

in my universe.


When I wonder,

bow my head,

I do not think

but see far away.


It is my way,

all language since

my history.


I feel the beat

in our magnificent universe,

it is a melody, a simple music song,


a word without word

and I see through ancient water

that the rhythm is more,

more than a rhyme.

Smallest letters

[image error]


Photograph I : Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans


Smallest letters


I have seen the results of a job

to be remembered for longer than a generation.


It will not be forgotten, how great

the offer, the suffering and gratitude, was.


I have heard, voices that cannot be listened

to, no more, any more, never ever to be seen.


It all came on my path and by my way of watching.

For me, it is the easiest pattern in human history.


As I am able, to translate deeper communication

it is a great honour when nobody makes the disharmony.


I have thought, more than once, people will not look

into my face, because I cannot turn back my head in foggy mist.

Bottles of water

Bottles of water


I look down, when I smell your boys.

The eyeballs do not look, anywhere.


Their mother may be called a whore

and the daughters are not to be regarded, as such.


Empty books are part of worldwide discrimination

in hope of expectation for a teacher at your high schools.


A bottle of water is more than simply water

and I see the broken flowers, in the houses, by Rome.


More gold and no silver, will stand for a future

a tale with children of a lesser God, out of that chimney.


He tried, but he could have tried harder, on his own

and that’s exactly the point, that it has never been a start.


I would never send any children on a crusade

and therefore, I am praying now, for forgivingness.


There are more ways to get there, and there are far more

other ways, that lead to another Place!

More woman

Samantha Fox – I Only Wanna Be With You


What was his name?

Bono? Bananarama?

Bono Vox. And his group movement.


I would not call it, music or entertainment.

Something else, probably.


My father would not allow me, to.

I have no money for such leisure distraction.

It is no good, for your children and future.


He does not sell any drinks of relaxation.

It is a pity, he would not stay, that way.

I am very impressed, all the way.

Snow blanket

Snow blanket


The pillow is filled

with feathers, soft,

small and sensitive.


From Heaven above

it keeps on falling

snowflakes on my blankets,

over, over, a lot

of frosty, ice flowers!


I can’t help,

not to stop smiling,

out of complete happiness!


The warmest, special

days of days


in my life,

are important

because of one

Guardian Angel!

Next morning

[image error]


Photograph I : Petra Cecilia Maria Hermans


Next morning


The old lady is a princess without kingdom.

She has an empire.


The monkey in the Zoo has a religion

between black, dark and brown.


I will have a look, the next morning

what all of your wishes, supposed to mean, to me.


I say, to stand for a new world, you have to notice

what the people are thinking about and feeling.


Between the newspapers and books, poems and poets

I will have some time, certainly, to see what the present


brings and give, according to my name and Birthday.

The morning brings the happiness of the every day evening.

The 3rd room


On the third floor,

no one is There.

Have you noticed.


Under the second ground,

blue skies are carried

in silent waters, through

a next phase.


In my first level,

I have seen people,

yes, I saw people.


On top of the roof

above a building,

the one lives

who is not there,

by a third room.

One good night

One good night


Justice is not the right word.

It is a truth in my truth.


Laws break the rules

of civilisation and no culture.


You have those spirits, that spirit

all alone, somewhere, she sees it All.


The animal in the forest, has her own

silver special treatment beyond all horizons.


The beasts stand behind her glass window of the terrarium

in a safe and secure environment why it All, comes together!


I had that wonderful moment, in my first degree of degeneracy

beyond the levels of absolute and total but not complete fluctuation.

The Religion of The Blue Circle

Let's talk about life.
Let's talk about love.
Let's write about religion.
And keep quiet in silent silence.
