Sunset above Amsterdam (Hendrik Jan van Randen, 1999, acrylic paint 70x50cm)
At last come so far
I wondered
what are now my following dreams?
It went fast this year
most dreams are fulfilled
Behind the fulfilment of each dream
is hidden another dream
that you'll get to know after that
With my move to Amsterdam yet not fulfilled
is my desire for
from home a view
on the setting sun
For the time being I will
in other ways make fun
than by fulfilling that dream
So what's behind the setting sun
I will not know for the time being
Hendrik Jan
