One Week Of Winter In Lofoten, Norway

Lofoten - Norway

Listen ~ I'm sure a competent musician could not have come up with something better Still we have much to learn from natures melody We can not escape from the music You need to change, we all need Take a deep conversation with the nature I don't think anyone really enjoys confrontation Nevertheless, I see this as very important Nature can not scream in pain, we must see the signals The voice of nature ~ the music ... a ballad So ~ for better or worse be a nature role model Where goodness is sown ~ goodness will be harvested - 27.05.2016 - Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) - (unrhymed couplets) - Copyright © All Rights Reserved

Coming from NZ can relate to this poem. I am running a metal collection Project at present for my local church. Once again a crisp, clean poem with a message phrased in positive way. That is what I like to read. It is often hard to not dilute this type of message. Which is a call to action. David

I am aware you must be Norwegian. I'm am as well (1/2 mother & family) I love your poetry about that subject. Now that is a very limiting statement, isn't it? I meant I love your work and especially that which concerns Norway.

I would love to visit Norway and Sweden some day. My wife and I have lots of heritage there. Paula is more from Norway and I am more from Sweden. Few listen to the music that nature provides for us...sometimes its just the grass or leaves rustling in the breeze :)
