Less ... and More!

I KNEW it – my readers far away
Few hits on my blog today
It's tempting to forget routine
And go to pastures lush and green.

Mass exodus by plane or car
A 4-day weekend – let's go far
Explore a city, see the sights
And enjoy a drink on balmy nights!

If left behind, be not dismayed
Here comes the Zinneke Parade!*
Or visit Namur-on-the-Meuse
Where a weekend festival occurs.

Now that the days outlive the nights
There's much culture that delights
I'm proud to say – my spirit soars
More bookings for my guided tours!

"Namur en Mai" festival




* The Zinneke Parade (LGBTQIAP+) takes place in 
Brussels every May.
Note for the curious: a Zinneke is someone born near  the Senne /Zenne river
whose parents do not have the same mother tongue.
