MY ETERNAL FLANDERS...

 

#AbFav_FESTIVE_SEASON_ πŸŽ„

 

During the festive days, I think of friends and family... on the Continent, mostly in Flanders...

The bells have rung, the echoes sound

The day is gone

Ay, Marieke, Marieke

In Flanders field the echoes sound

The day is gone

(excerpt from 'Ay Marieke' by Jacques Brel)

This flat, windswept land, so fertile, so mutilated in the past.

The stretch behind the dunes is still, like in the Middle Ages dotted with those 'round' villages.

Church and graveyard in the center, houses around in a circle, the road, often still cobblestones, meandering through it.

Flanders... where I was born...

It was a soft windstill evening, a beautiful silence caressed my ears, the layered fog effacing whole sections of the land from my eyes, trailing capriciously in the sigh of the sunset...

I left the bottom in because that's how it was, grey and darker and lighter again.

I wish you a day full of beauty and thank you for your visit, Magda, (*_*)
