Norway

Rugged hills and mountains with trees around,
you can walk far without ever hearing a sound,
except bird chirps, and fish splashes that lasts and lasts.
Much to do, much to see, a wilderness so wast.
And so different wherever you want to explore,
the north and south feels the same but there's more.
The north in winter is no place to be,
it's so cold and black, and snowy, you see,
wading around in snow over your head.
In summer so light, why would you seek your bed,
visiting the land of the midnight sun,
where it shines all the time, oh such fun.
The south is different from north you understand,
it's more normal but still is rather grand,
as filled with cities and mountains as it is.
Yes, most our population lives there, you can't miss,
so pack your bags, and come and explore,
when leaving you'll still be wanting more.

Yes, when you are leaving you'll be wanting more.

Geir Jakobsen (C) 2000


Quick and dirty, yet so fun to write.

When the veiling cloud has past
Playful shadows dance
