Why only amuse my friends?
I want everybody's attention,
will honor you with my intends
deriving from our comprehension.
All objections are dismissed,
Stories and verses are contrived,
mainly because I couldn't resist
and wondering how they arrived.
Tragicomic out of the dark,
my expanding brains spark.
Maybe half-hearted but very proud,
till I shall tumble of this cloud.

Grandpa's birthday.
"Eighty one years old
but still very bold
sitting near the pot stove"
Henk sang paraphrasing
the 'Doe Maar' song.
To Ien grandpa confessed:
"If I only were young"
Henk still doing 'Doe Maar' songs:
"Under collapsing buildings
in the city
next to youuu."
Paul waited for the right moment
to show his newest creation.
