Does this fit the topic or do poetry recitals go somewhere else? @Someone I figured I’d see how my webcam’s mic does compared to my cellphone. 😉 https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?visual=false&url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F447219669&show_artwork=true&maxheight=166&secret_token=s-dXRQF Annie Schmidt belongs to my earliest reading experiences. Besides the general feeling of joy, I’ve forgotten almost everything about her stories and poems. She died on this day in 1995. ## Aan een klein meisje Dit is het land, waar grote mensen wonen. Je hoeft er nog niet in: het is er boos. Er zijn geen feeën meer, er zijn hormonen, en altijd is er weer wat anders loos. En in dit land zijn alle avonturen hetzelfde, van een man en van een vrouw. En achter elke muur zijn an’dre muren en nooit een eenhoorn of een bietebauw. En alle dingen hebben hier twee kanten en alle teddyberen zijn hier dood. En boze stukken staan in boze kranten en dat doen boze mannen voor hun brood. Een bos is hier alleen maar een boel bomen en de soldaten zijn niet meer van tin. Dit is het land waar grote mensen wonen … Wees maar niet bang. Je hoeft er nog niet in. Annie M.G. Schmidt (1911-1995) ---
