My Little Urban Nature

I’m so happy here on these sunny days.
April has been very generous with the inhabitants of the usually gray and dreary Amsterdam.

There are very few things that give me more pleasure than gazing at the sun,
revealing the greenery,
and deepening the colors of my blooms.

The light of the sun-setting upon the wooden fence,
kissing my little urban nature softly.

I dwell in the feeling of peace and gratitude
for the realization of a dream I never dared to dream of,
and that I can only feel by observing the beauty of my little urban nature unfolding.

A garden. Mine.
At the back of a ground-floor apartment in the now glowing Amsterdam.

My eyes and my mind rest in the feelings of bliss.
My chest in its fullness…

for my little urban nature.
