It’s not how it used to be
That Holland was the most difficult
place to return to
How its grey immediately invaded me
and took away my colours
leaving me longing
for another place that I could call my home
Instead, this time Holland offers me
a comfortable, warm coat
When I step from the airplane
into its stormy, cold weather
Because I realize, that Holland
holds the memories of the two of us
Where we first met
The place that connects us
and that generously offers its ground
for us to meet again
And therefore the right place
for me to be

I loved this, the meaning and connection a place can hold. I like it how you gratefully receive the “generously offered” gift the land gives. Beautifully written.

Lovely. Despite the inconveniences a place can become special if it holds sentiments for lovers. Beautiful concept. But then, Holland is every traveller’s dream destination. 😊
