The document is a poem expressing that one's identity and life experiences are shaped by the people they have met. Each person's name represents someone who crossed the author's path and impacted them in some way, no matter how briefly they may have known each other. The author sees themselves as a composite of the people they have met and prefers not to forget any of the friends who have helped shape who they are.

4. all written in a book, And every now and then.. I go and take a look. I have a list of folks I know...

6. That is when I realize these names... they are a part, not of the book they're written in... but taken from the heart.

8. For each name stands for someone... who has crossed my path sometime, and in that meeting they have become... the reason and the rhyme.

10. Although it sounds fantastic.... for me to make this claim, I really am composed... of each remembered name.

12. Although you're not aware... of any special link, just knowing you, has shaped my life... more than you could think.

14. So please don't think my greeting... as just a mere routine, your name was not... forgotten in between.

16. For when I send a greeting... that is addressed to you, it is because you're on the list... of folks I'm indebted to.

18. So whether I have known you... for many days or few, in some ways you have a part... in shaping things I do.

20. I am but a total... of many folks I've met, you are a friend I would prefer... never to forget.

In 1969 Pieter obtained the commercially valuable diploma of graphic design, working for various publishers over a number of years. Throughout these years Pieter has continuously refined his painting technique. Thematically he prefers still life paintings with antique objets d'art. Looking for the symbolic value of a composition he builds a moving story. The 'vanitas' motif is a major source of inspiration. Reflecting on the transitory nature of life, beauty often is incoprorated in the form of a flower composition. Pieter Wagemans
