Poetry

It was a great year for me with regards to my poetry: On the first of May 2011 I won 'De Zilveren Brandnetel' a Dutch Poetry Award. It was particularly important to me since the awarded poem is dedicated to my father and the day of the award ceremony was on my mothers' birthday….

I hope you enjoy the poems included in this site: there is a large selection of poems in English and a somewhat smaller selection in Dutch.

Currently I am writing on my new book: 'Sax and the Art of Jazzifying the Universe' in this book there will be sections in German, English and Dutch. I hope you enjoy what you read.

My book 'In Exsilium'  with poems in both English and Dutch is still available under these links:
