Happy Birthday MomHere are my poem in Norwegian: (translation in English comming down below)
Du blir et år eldre
og du har gjort det med stil
Sekundene tikker
tiden er inne
du går inn i ett nytt år
med håp i sinnet
Tid for ettertanke
på året som gikk
drømmer som knuste
alt du ikke fikk
Men alt...

Gespruit en toe vergete met gewete van papier
Besluit te neem om als te los wat hierso agter bly
Eers drie; toe een; toe twee; toe vier
Die som van toekomsblik vir jou - maar eerder meer vir my
Die aand was koud en hunkring sterk sou...

A Pickle PartyLet’s all bring our mortar and pestle
And have a party of great papaya pickle
We call this a famous Thai ‘’som tum”
So delicious! Heavenly awesome!
Let’s first wear our kitchen attire
Dance the Thai music, don’t be shy
Then prepare all the somtum ingredients
For superb taste, a hundred percent.

Pointless, Worthless, WarWhy do people have to die,
for something as stupid as war?
It's pointless,
It's worthless,
and causes nothing but pain.
There may be that moment,
when the victory is great.
But there's always after,
when the sorrow sinks in,
the tears fall,
and hearts break.
Fathers and sons are lost,
leaving wives and mothers behind.
Alone to...

The Wine WaitronHello. Good evening. I greet you with cheer
To the fancy and posh, I'm a Sommelier
To the friendly and warm, call me The Som
And to the simple, less worldly, I'm a wine waitron
My job here at Lanser's? To satisfy your senses
Don't panic or worry, cos it...

Viure Per La IndependenciaSi està convençut que la independència és impossible, dir-los que és impossible de ser silenciós, impossible i no tenir una veu impossible és ser inhumà i acceptar ratlles. Tenim el dret a viure. Creiem en aquesta certesa amb totes les forces del nostre cos i,...

Heroic Couplet
Grandparnts' FarmWorking on grandparents' farm
Build som muscle - there's no harm!
Feed the calves; horses hay
Think I'm enjoying every day!
There sure is a lot to do
Feeding and riding to name a few!
When all the work is said and done
I'm just weary to the bone!...

Who Knows, Who CaresMusic blaring loud , covering the rage in my head.
The world is my enemy tonight.
Rain thrashing against the window, cold and hard.
Hoping it will cleanse my soul.
Knowing this is to be a vain hope.
Smoldering fire building down deep.
Hoping this is where it will keep.
Hidden away,...
