52°52'04.5"n 5°31'19.2"e
Geitekeuteltsjes en skytaaien ferklappe
in ferburgen gearkomste
fan ôfrûnne nacht
Wetterdamp stiget op út ‘e mar
en kringelt tusken de beammen troch
Kontoeren fan libben tekenje har ôf
It is in hiele drokte mei
kij, geitebokjes en fûgels
omjûn troch magy en tsjoenderij
By dat komplot fan wyldguod
hâldt it wetterhynderke de wacht
It is it geheim fan de Wyldemerk
Grietje Hoekstra
Goat droppings and cowpats tell-tale signs of a secret conference while the world was sleeping. Mist rises up from the lake wispy fingers encircling the trees. Contours of life slowly become visible. Cows, billy goats and birds all jostle for centre stage surrounded by magic and witchcraft. Lady damselfly is on watch for this conspiracy of wild animals. It’s the best-kept secret of the Wyldemerk.
