POEMS

“And it was at that age… Poetry arrived,
there I was without a face
and it touched me.”
(Pablo Neruda)
May these poems touch you
– without faces, in between words,
beyond sounds, further than space,
larger than time, in the midst of beauty and ♥.

and I discover
– again –
that

Life
is
a
playground,

simply asking of me
to get into the groove.

DRAAG ME (Nederlands gedicht)

Posted by on Aug 14, 2013 in Poetry Extracts | Comments Off on DRAAG ME (Nederlands gedicht)

Draag me,
naar het einde van mijn dromen.

Draag me,
tot de dans het van ons overneemt.

Draag me,
langsheen de werelden die ons omringen.

Draag me,
voorbij vervoering en vervulling.

always lived inside of me:

one billion smiles,

shedding light on every cell of my body”

The Clouds (poem)

The Clouds (poem)

The clouds are telling me a story of hide-and-seek. I keep looking for the clue, but get distracted by the play of dark-and-light and by the here-is-there-and-everywhere.

Swirling and circling around the centre of my centre, I collect the happiness of sweet words and smells.

And I wonder and sigh.. Life.”

(Caroline S’Jegers)

Senses of Belonging (extract)

I feel a shiver caressing me
yet I open my eyes to see
the thousand brilliant oceans
and the golden shadow of the sun
as it ever more softly shakes off
its curiousness.

Sacred Identity (extract)

There is so much that I can show you,

as it is you that can be the show itself.

Your show started a long time ago.

And your mind will never be able to grasp

all the dances that you have been making.
