Did you know?
As you dreamed your dreamless sleep
Within that temporal existence
You were with me at Vondel Park
You stowed away on the back of some scent-filled freesias
It was just when I thought of missing you
That you came to me
Such a serendipitous arrival
Was it you entering my dream,
Or me entering yours?
I sat on a bench to catch the phrases
In front of the bird refuge
And, as if on command, a pelican-like creature glided by
Stirring the Sunday morning air
She came to rest upon her tall perch
A nest in the sanctuary-sky
And her love was waiting for her there
