Travelling prayer
I travel back and forth between Groningen and Aldtsjerk (in different provinces) a lot: I spend weekdays studying and weekends at home with the family. Today, during the 1,5 hour journey, I composed this quartet in dactylic hexameter:
Knowing my gods these verses are all that needs to be said, so
I, with their comforting company, head for the journey ahead.
Travelling over the road unfolding beneath my two feet, I
look at the endless horizon. I go for my future to meet.
