Wind in the Willows • Via #7 • 20241102

Poetry of motion…

‘Glorious, stirring sight!’ murmured Toad, never offering to move. ‘The poetry of motion! The real way to travel! The
only way to travel! Here to-day—in next week to-morrow!
Villages skipped, towns and cities jumped—always
somebody else’s horizon! O bliss! O poop-poop! O my! O
my!’*

Singing in the wind cycling on the willow lane in the Green Heart of Holland around noon, November 16, 2016.

Polder dyke Kleikade (tr. Clay Quay) view – wide and tele lens – from the Donderdam hamlet , with the town Waddinxveen on the horizon. A new motorway ‘Bentwoudlaan’ (referring to the vision of a ‘boulevard’ through the ‘woods’ around the small hamlet Bent around Alphen) would cross this remnant of the Green Heart of Holland.

Traffic at sunset – 10 pm – around Alphen. According to molenberaad•nl another road is planned by the South-Holland province some 100-200 meter in the back, then we have surround sound here in these young woods – Bentwoud – finished a few years ago in the Green Heart of Holland.
