I love to write poems,
and almost all of them are from my own hand.
Atlas I thank my dad for the pictures that I used with Atlas, Dromen and Busy!
Maybe in time I will place more, but I haven't been writing much lately.
The ones I have chosen to place here, are for
most people and in a lot of situations understandable.
I think that a lot of people might recognize something in them.
A lot of my poems are quite
personal.
That is why I decided only to place the 'lighter' ones. Each poem is packed in a
nice picture :-)
This poem I made as a test, when I first started this part
of the homepage. Just to see how it would become. It turned out as a sweet little poem with a
little joke
towards the picture, which is made by my dad in the Royal Palace in Amsterdam. I decided
to leave it here (English)
Die mooie kleine dingen
This is a Dutch poem that I wrote in the late summer of '99. Starting to see the sun again after my divorce.

Ord i sand
A Norwegian poem (writer unknown) which made a lot of impression on me. It's a sad love poem called 'words in the sand'
Sparrow
This poem has a very special meaning to me. I wrote it in august 2003. Later I found out that Simon and Garfunkel
had a song called Sparrow. My nick name showed to fit... (English)

or being rich and dreaming. A truth that stands as a rock!
Present

closed it down. As the title says: it's about the present :-) (English)
