Thoughts About You And Me In The Low Lands (Haiku's) Poem by Gert Strydom

In this Netherland,
our own small country is bright
where it is far off.

*

It has dyke on dyke,
and build with sluice upon sluice,
but you are restless.

*

A lovely church stand
with stained glass but is empty
with no worshiper.

*

In a large window
God is portrayed in glass,
we know He exists.

*

I see old Vermeer
when Holland come into sight,
ship on ship sail out.

*

With a boat we sail
through shiny moat on moat
in the sheer darkness.
*

On a adventure
very far from our country
we are together.

*
A troubadour
sing about the way of love
when we do embrace.

*
The water does lap,
your sweet lips burn upon mine,
you are right against me.

*

I love you intense,
where we look upon the world
far from our own land.
