Poem written by the artist on the 7th of April 2020 (Dutch original, English version on the way)

‘The Alchemy of Dreams – poem 5’

 

Gedragen door tranen en verlangen,

maar overmand door de droom die leeft in mijn hart,

bloeien de schilderijen langzaam in mijn ziel,

mij nooit verlatend,

alleen wanneer hun aangezicht zal meevoeren

over alle oceanen van de wereld,

en mijn droom eeuwig zal schijnen in het huis van onze liefde.
