windmill proud erect
between blankets of tulips
beauty laid for miles
arial view seen
like stripes across a flag
eye candy to reap
fragrance of tulips
bring holland to her senses
pretty dutch petals
pointed wooden shoes
clogging down the avenue
dancing with the dutch
Like Egypt without Nile,
like Holland without dyke,
like army without ammo,
like birds without wings,
is our world bereft of
brotherly love.
Life unberable is created..
Proffered Then death by needle
Great effort Enjoined to sanitize
Waste of human rescources
Before our western walls !
There was a young thin cow of Holland
She would love to laze around on hot sand
Eating grass was well past
She wanted to have a blast
By munching organic fruits freshly canned
From Holland came Heronymous Bosch
with intricate detail never at a loss
Painting the greatest fantasy ever*
his imagery oh so clever

It is warmer
In Paris
They talk about
The weather
Eat frugally
Hamburgers made of
Indian cows
Turnips from Sweden
Potatoes
From Holland
Gobbledegook
And sign on
The dotted line.
Holland is the flower capital of the world
Amazing multi-color fields send my mind in a whirl
Roses go on forever
Nine billion treasures
Day after day they send our minds in a swirl

Cows, fowl on road
Not by will, with pigs - business -
Of life and death
II April 6, 1652
From Holland, van Riebeeck
Europe's willing men, to Good Hope
Good, bad, near Robben Island
Phyllis Upman was a young maid
When she learnt the rules of her trade:
Show men what they want
Behave nonchalant
And be sure to pull down the shade!
n.b. Window shopping in
Amsterdam is a more popular
tourist attraction than tulips
Going on Holland America Cruise on
Oosterdam. It leaved out of Ft. Lauderdale
on 16 October and returns on 26 October.
It will be going to Eastern Caribbean.
Will not have access to internet so
will not be entering any poems
into Poetry Soup. Keep writing poems.

flames of gold

Holland designed
this tulip
around
the

Canada,
truly
a
unique
bloom.

Spring came late that year
As I looked for love
I searched in England
And in Mexico
Even in old France
Maybe Holland
Or Germany
Shanghai perhaps
Or in Russia
Then it came
Why so far
Look nearby
Next door
I found

Was fullness thereof
That is in Jesus's love
Sent from up above.
Wanted from the start
Now I have God in my heart
We will never part.
Thankful yes am I
That for me Jesus did die
See Him by and by
Back from cruise to Southern Caribbean
on Holland American Oosterdam.

Holland’s glorious tulips amid windmills
Enticing the best nutrients from her gown,
Arriving two months after the daffodils,
Gorgeous colorful tulips do take her crown.
Parade of these beautiful flowers gives me chills.
Nature never lets anything slow her down.

Perfect Excuse
We finally found a perfect excuse
50th anniversary and going on a cruise
On Holland America well known
For being a place we call our own
No longer ourselves will we abuse.
Leaving this morning for two weeks
See lovely beaches and tall peaks
Best views that we ever had
And going on we are very glad
Seagulls sang songs through their beaks.

Brewed in Holland
Ah the land of Orange
In the land where the blond daises
Drinking in heat waves,
Sharing smiles and holding hands,
Rescuing black, dirty hearts
And then they fall apart and only pity kisses
Hold them together.
Love is brewed
And love is drunk,
In love together,
Whatever there is together
And kisses each other,
Only to kiss at Death’s feet
In those later years.
Hans tried this save as a tike -
Episodic finger in the Holland-days dike.
Not afraid to swim.
See-through stranger didn’t spook him.
Friendly Casper scared the boo out of all,
Spared the scaredy-cats with a window y’all.
They see through the glass magnified fishes.
The aquarium, a dutch treat for all their wishes.

Jayne in a Man’s Field
I wrote on a Porsche “Take the Jayne Train”
How long in the mess hall would she remain
She came out and saw
She smiled, I said duh
Took a photo with her less my brain

*I actually took a photo with Jayne Mansfield
at an airbase in Holland when she was doing a touring promotion back in ’58. Lovely lady!
They were snowy white with streaks of hot flesh
From Holland, of course, hybrids with a fancy name
We other tulips felt plain and boring next to them
Where were they being planted? I stretched to see.
Sighing in relief when I saw they were in the next bed.
It was bad enough I had to share with the morning glories.
And the tiger lilies and the bleeding hearts.
I did not need any more serious competition
There once was a man from Holland
who waved so much he broke his hand
for he was popular in his land
so on his hand he wears a band
to greet his fans in Holland land .

There once was a man from Holland Land.
who waved so much he broke his own hand
all 'cause he loved this land;
placed a band on his hand,
to greet his fans in Holland land!

the sunflower doll was from Holland of course
I could tell by the colors said the wise well-seasoned horse
the goats did not know what he was talking about
They did not ask any questions, instead gave a pout.
Blue and yellow are Dutch-like the horse told the pig
A smart animal who asked, and then gave a jig.
Asking questions is a sign that you are quite bright.
The goats continued to wonder, all through the night.
Hard cheese for the E U
The Dutch, have tractored through'
A sea change election from
A farm conscious; direction
Theres now a great party
Grounded in sanity looking in clarity
Holland may longer sinking? from
Great green waste bills a'stinking
Reality astounding could well
Counter such drowning, which illegal
And immoral brings division and quarrel
Heads up now Holland.' May brighter
Prospects soon follow; on.'
A generation gone too soon, each tank, batallion or platoon;
They went with glory on their mind, and left the ones they loved behind;
A slaughter on a massive scale, at Flanders, Ypres and Passchendaele;
They marched into the fiercest fights, to defend their countries and protect our rights;
Still formed in rows as on parade, their ranks are now formed up in graves;
In Belgium, Holland and in France, salute them for rememberance.
Holland
In Holland this sweet clog walking land
have too many cows realising methane gas into the air.
There are many gas explosions in Holland
no one has yet to connect the gas with the cattle.
But it is difficult for them the have fewer cows.
Once I met Prince Hans of Netherlands, I drove his stuff up
to his farmhouse and he never paid me, and that is way
they are successful living in the middle of Europe and
somehow voiding paying tax.
