All the very same

My father and grandfather knew something

more than I did, about forests and woods.

I worked, at the age of 14 years, with strawberries.

You have those berries, of lower qualities.

In quantity, they are cheaper

because of a special name (kneusjes, Dutch).

My grandfather had yellow roses in his garden and

the other grandfather, beans, plums and wild flowers.

At the light of the late evening, my grandfather

gave new roses, into the light of my father.

Marxism or fascism, almost Nazism.

Marxism or fascism, it is all the same.
