Or maybe not. Well if you do… T-shirts from www.zazzle.com (range of colours and sizes available), and they do Norwegian wives, husbands and girlfriends too
Or my personal favourite: ‘Everyone loves a Norwegian boy’.
A Norwegian love poem for Valentine’s Day
Posted by admin in Art, culture and literature on February 14, 2010
This poem is called ‘It’s the Dream’ (from Drops in the East Wind, 1966). It is written by Olav H. Hauge, one of Norway’s most famous poets.
…
It’s the dream we carry in secret
that something miraculous will happen,
that it must happen –
that time will open
that the heart will open
that doors will open
that the rockface will open
that spring will gush –
that the dream will open,
that one morning we will glide into
some little harbour we didn’t know was there.
