Gedichten José Janse

In april van dit jaar verschijnt er een nieuw boek van José Janse uit Kraggenburg, een gedichtenbundel met engelstalige gedichten. Ze mag er van haar uitgever Boekscout alvast 3 met ons delen:

Music.

Feel the sound of your soul

Having his own rhythm

Composing his unique song

And sending out, every note, into the universe

Filled with their own special tone

They create a song of life

Music, a way of expression

Connecting, soul to soul.

Our Animal Friends.

Looking in their eyes, as pure as they are

Showing us the love that is given to us

They are our guardians, how humble we can feel

Looking in their eyes, so true, so honest and so wise

Let us give them back, all the respect and love we have

And thank them, with our whole heart

For being allowed, to walk with them, together,

On our journey of life.

Faith.

Faith, what else is left other than faith

When everything seems so dark?

Having faith, that finally all is well

Even though we can’t see?

Having faith, that there is a plan behind everything

Even though we don’t understand?

And yet, we must have faith

Even though we don’t know where to go

Keep on moving is the best thing we can do

Even though steps forward are alternated by steps backwards

Having faith, in the knowledge that we have an inner light

Always shining, no matter how dark it seems

This inner light is the light of God, to lighten our path in life

Always there, in times of need

On each of us to have faith, in his love and guidance

Then we know, we are not alone

And that there is nothing, without a reason or plan behind.

José Janse schreef eerder een sprookjes voorleesprentenboek: 'Twinkel het elfenmeisje'. Positiviteit, vrolijkheid, fantasie en creativiteit voeren in dit boek de boventoon.
