Tekst achterflap

During my recovery from a stroke, I was given the gift of time—weeks of rest that became an opportunity to look inward. Writing poems helped me reflect, adjust my daily rhythm, and anchor the changes I needed to make. What at first felt like a pause, I now see as a valuable stopover: a chance to move forward at a slower pace, with more attention to the inner world. This cycle of poems is shaped by patience and gratitude, by rest and reflection. I share them with the hope that they may also speak to others who have known moments of interruption, change, or recovery.
