Urgh, where does time go?!
Anyway, once upon a time, This Girl went to Bergen, which is in the southwest of Norway.
While I was in a visitor centre, or the shop of some tourist thing or another, I saw this poem (in English translation) on the wall and fell rather in love with it.
Sssh the sea says
sssh the small waves at the shore say, sssh
not so violent, not
so haughty, not
so remarkable.
Sssh
say the the tips of the waves
crowding around the headland's
surf. Sssh,
they say to people
this is our earth,
our eternity.
Rolf Jacobsen
