I have been to New York
Also flown KLM to Amsterdam
I have seen Claude Monet’s Lilies
Also squared up the Piet Mondrian
I have had the stronger coffee
Also the pancake and the flan
I have beamed with sophistication
Also wandered; off-piste, off plan
I have handled crumpled banknotes
Also dope, weighed in by the gramme
I have leaned on the many bridges
Also travelled for free on the city tram
I have been your happy companion
Also spent time, simply as I am
I have dreamed of Outlook’s many colours
Also read street maps, as just the best I can
