Best Fjords Poems
The Land of the Midnight SunI went cruising to Norway with my wife across the North Sea
We travelled the route the Vikings took but with added luxury
Our first port of call was Stavanger, it was nice to be on dry land
A town with old historic white buildings looking fine and...

Eurovision
From fjords, forests, hot springs,
slopes and snowy mountains,
people from different 'walks of life,'
connect their cultures to entertain.
A vision of Europe and humanity,
where a continent is home to many dialects,
serenading in diverse artistic styles.
Blending voices that carry something distinct,
bellowed from a ballad, rock or
something completely comedic.
I...

- Thoughts 'Tween Stars Embrace and Waters Deep Grace -The light that dances will enchant the eyes that shine
In heaven's grace the stars illuminate God's eternity
She cannot touch them with her fingertips they are too far away
What wondrous glory fills her with desire's joy at infinity's song
Heaven's beauty ever caresses her temple as eternity...

Holiday HorrorWe had just got married - was the month of June
This is the saga of our disastrous honeymoon
We started off in a hotel in Norwich
The bedding was itchy just like doing ‘porridge’
Back home to Birmingham to get ready for our cruise
To the Norwegian Fjords ...

Long May You ReignAs genial cheers weave spells in your presence
To enchant our eyes with jubilant scenes;
For conservative ways do kindle wonders
Though few will say, all is not what it seems.
Yet the stars beam in joyful contentment
Crowning eighty years of Elizabeth’s time,
Guided by old rules yet loved...

Travelling In NorwayIn the arctic frozen sky of the enchanting land the midnight sun
leans on the horizon briefly in bright summer and again it rises,
I didn’t know when a new day actually would have or had begun.
The frosty sky in winter night burns in flashes of aurora...

With you, the twilight changes, wandering through the silent dreamsWith you, the twilight changes, wandering through the silent dreams,
With you, destiny wanders, hopes and promised goals.
With trembling boats at the shores, love urges us to be
Hostages to the droplets of waves and kings over all we hold dear.
I do not want to hear that...

Bernard's Writing To Esther By Vera Polozkova TranslationBernard is writing Esther: "I have a family, a nice shed,
I always take the lead and have never in life been lead.
In the mornings I walk Jess, at night I drink rum, eat bread
But when I see you - can hardly breathe as if I'm...

The Kissing GroundSophie's sweat
landscapes
the claret red horizon
thick serum
trickles
from a Sickroom -
a death ward
where cracked knuckles
spatter the fjords
moistening the planks;
bathing the laths of anxiety
‘neath
marquis de sade stumps
Norwegian expressions of death -
agoraphobia
murdering actuality;
the Dance of Life
rapidly burns
as a funeral pyre of Ashes are
seized from
your tribe’s...

Abc's of Capital CitiesAthens, quite a place, so full of mythology
Buenos Aires, in Argentina, a place I'd love to see
Canberra, is just antipodean class
Dublin, a pint of Guinness in a glass
Edinburgh, the capital of the Scots
Freetown, a city, now violence is never sought
Georgetown, a place where Jim Jones...

So Much To SeeSo Much to See
By Franklin Price
12/11/2016
Elephants in Africa
The mountains of Nepal
The Kangaroos down under
I want to see it all
The moors of northern England
Castles from the past
A musical on Broadway
Old iron sides and its mast
Gondolas on the Grand Canal
The fjords of the north
The windmills of...
