Suddenly One Monday

A Collection of Poems

By: Boni Van Beirendonck

With its 32 poems Suddenly one Monday is as powerful as it is concise. In a rhythmic language with poetic images the author deals with issues of his personal life, but goes far beyond that to reflect on problems and issues of mankind and the whole world. In his personal sphere we are confronted with his never-ending awe at the mystery of language and communication, the hope, fear and uncertainty of being a poet, followed later by the joy of achieving a thing of beauty. Then it is time for our emotions in spring, summer, autumn and winter and for an original text about the origin and meaning of Christmas. The author denounces our hypocrisies and ecological 'crimes' against our Mother Earth and pathetically demands more love and respect for animals, our brothers and sisters. In line with his admirable self-irony about "Getting Old" we will appreciate his oriental "Meditation" about being an inseparable part of the eternal wheel, and a philosophical piece about "Time". All this and a host of other things in a language that is vibrating with life and emotions.
