To Norway:the Subtle Shades of Feeling
To Norway:the Subtle Shades of Feeling (Written during my visit to Norway Sept 2008) Miracle of nature Twilight of inner rest Sognefjord Fjord’s climate Copious fisheries Paradise is here Borgund stave churches: Mind’s eye feeds on Spiritual shapes Steep hills Heaven-touching cliffs Narrow fjords Wooden church Colossus island osteroy Hounds of terror disappear Fjord boat Steam train Dearest Norway, alas, I must part Hardanger boat museum Catch me Building a model boat I explore Bergen fjords and mountains Dreaming of Heaven awhile Awake, my Muse, awake Just sight-seeing Deep sea-fishing Unpolluted evening breeze Norway's Glacier Museum Makes me quite charmed Away from cruel claw Nature's sweet notes Coastal landscape magical Norway shall live for ever in my song
