Sebastiaan

Hoog Catharijne –

every week

the same place

the same shops

and the people

I meet there

Hoog Catharijne –

every month

the bags

with his newspaper –

Sebastiaan

who sells me

his wares

with a twinkle

in his eye

Sebastiaan

who, with

a happy word

has just passed

through my day
