This poem was the result of an enchanting and memorable trip on Holland’s thin roads running along its canals. It obviously had to be adjusted but the words, emotion and kernel were kept. The photos are fairly recent.
Enjoy it!
Authentic Holland
——————
Earth and paradise
In this country
Peace in its nature
Green, blue so pure
Narrow roads
Water on all sides
Line of earth
Precarious but salutary
Solitude and tranquility
Propitious pleasures
Picture perfect
Grandiose and magnificent
Landing
From time to time
In small quaint villages
Reminiscing a fairy tale
One final flight
Grazing the ground
Ethereal scenery
Coasting the imaginary
Euphoria and sadness
Contradictory feelings
Belonging to an evening
Of nature in triumph
On the highway, tired
Feeling purified
Of buried anxieties
Hitherto asleep
Furrowing this beautiful country
Its character dazzles us
And we regain…
The Holland of our youth
The port of our wandering.

La Hollande authentique
————————-
Terre et paradis
Dans ce pays
Paix en sa nature
Vert, bleu si pur
Routes étroites
L’eau de toute part
Ligne de terre
Précaire mais salutaire
Solitude et tranquillité
Plaisirs propices
Tableau parfait
Grandiose et magnifique
Atterrissant
De temps en temps
Dans de petits villages coquets
Rappelant un conte de fée
Un dernier envol
Frôlant le sol
Paysage irréel
Côtoyant l’imaginaire
Euphorie et tristesse
Sensations contradictoires
N’appartenant qu’un soir
A une nature en allégresse
Sur l’autoroute, fatigué
Se sentant purifié
Des angoisses enfouies
Jusqu’ici endormies
Sillonnant ce beau pays
Son caractère nous ébloui
Et nous regagnons…
La Hollande de notre enfance
Le port de notre errance.
