CATHARINA BOER

Poetry is a slumbering thought which wakes up on rhythm and sound.

ALBERT HAGENAARS (3)

Time is money is miles is experiences is poetry is time.


A poem is a mechanism consisting of signs, sounds, images and symbols, which turns into an organism getting hold of you as soon as you recognize the beauty, truth and enigma's that are already in you.


Writing poetry while traveling is far more important to me than traveling while writing poetry.
