For Dear Vinhie

For Dear Vinhie (to read to him) along the Dutch meadows there are no shadows I feel the wind is strongest the breeze is here hardest their sounds are quietest while I'm looking around to homeward bound along the Dutch meadows there are no sparrows people told me our country is void of these societal creatures my thoughts immediately go to Amsterdam will the situation be the same? as far as I know most houses are on the dike since Amsterdam is 12 meters below sea level my mind wanders from the meadows-sparrows-no shadows up to the dike what would downtown Amsterdam look like? cozy without any bike? feels very strange along the Dutch meadows there are no shadows not a single tree, no sparrows, nobody but me thank you almighty Lord that you accompanied me © Sylvia Frances Chan - All rights reserved Tue January 19,2021
