Mrs. Femke Halsema And Ramparts Rare.... Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Mrs. Femke Halsema and Ramparts Rare

Amsterdam housewife?
now no more
she looks beautiful
not really a beauty
are you sure, not really a beauty? !

She is married
and she is mother
her husband is photographer,
she is finally a government's deal
a woman like nowhere

If she is part of the implementation of the Government
she is never a supplement
but this woman, a real lady
is never in the shadow of her hubby
reigns over the capital as a lady

She is our most sympathetic mayor, real energetic
our choice last year
she is very fond of us

of course she is our choice

Amsterdam is the capital as nowhere on this globe

we hope

prosperity in our mental parts
Amsterdam has real unique art
the world famous Amsterdam ramparts

Men are still allowed to go
it is not prohibited yet
to see the women on the ramparts

True Natural Art
they are part of the map of Amsterdam

The tourist rarely goes to the florist

For him the Amsterdam ramparts
are suffice
on holiday he is free from his office
the Amsterdam ramparts suffice

the ramparts have become his office....

please note this
the male tourist
travels alone to the Netherlands

constantly without his wife

if she goes with him
he has constant strife
from his own wife

he cannot see that unique art
the world famous Amsterdam Ramparts

but Mrs. Halsema

checks everyday her office list

if too many male tourists
cause truly a heaviest traffic jam

then no ramparts anymore
and all there is....
