I was indeed a rich man!

A lucky man, a family man,

Of the Nazarene.

It is written my friends

That to live for Christ

Is the summit of wisdom,

For wise men still...

Lets not get carried away with facts
Or jump to the granular conclusions
Evident, proven beyond a reasonable doubt
Down to the shadows of last molecules found

Earth is held together by glue based magnets
Causing a stir in the...

The Past

Our world is beautiful. 
It is old, and it is young.

What I want for Christmas,...

Frigid, knife-edged winds from the northwest
sweep down like hungry raptors on 
pewter gray skies. Feral eyed, keen on destruction.
Late May. Sullen skies discharge sleet and glacial,
stinging rain. Threatening each newly exposed
green leaf and sprout. Frozen...

All Japanese people use ancient glacial ice
Mined from miles below the arctic circle
By sophisticated machinery and drills
Core samples are their way of life
Core values is a reason for holding on

There are times when I sit on my porch
Dreaming of the days when I was young
How I miss the sound of the ocean
And the taste of salt upon my tongue

In the arms of a dark...

Summer sky raises scarlet sun of dulcet dawn,
     burns the noon air when the spring nip is gone.

Summer scorches the spring’s last budding hue.

Take me back to Akureyri, sunshine capital of the north
Through lava fields and bluest waterfalls rushing forth
Summer solstice came and we never saw the dark
A perfect time of year for an adventure to embark
Natural hot...

Summer solstice 






As Sun appeared to stand still in the sky
hence a Latin term solstice arised,
Summer sweltered till to fierce heat's wilt, 
came closer to sun, earth with elliptic tilt,
Be it reason to season's conquest,
Summer...

Utterly cold waters for two southerners from Oslo.
They take our breath away when swimming. 
The land of the midnight sun and the gorgeous
Aurora lights are featured at Uttakleiv Beach.
Kept our eyes open too for unusual...

The white beast of the arctic circle
Stomping on the iridescent ice
Traveling far and wide across Alaska
Hunting for its next carnivore’s meal 

He likes the ocean as cold as it can
Where he lives there is slush,...

TORPEDOS’ NAPALM

How does one survive during those days and nights?
Men and women deal with scorpion...

Twenty days plus one hour is what it takes
The October country requires no less
Halloween land is treacherous with black glass sharp
Slime covered dark rocks that cut
Green rain is acid, leaves everything deformed
Not far beyond this...
