This was lovely, I really loved the last verse. Always nice reading something new! The poem, not the poet, was new to me :) Also, trollbunden is such a wonderful word!

One of my favourite poems in Norwegian is Tung tids tale by Halldis Moren Vesaas – never ceases to connect with me. I especially love this line: det er mange ikring deg som frys, ver du eit bål, strål varme ifrå deg.
