Elements
Norway is the manifestation of water and earth
Both in their rawest and most genuine form
Giant solid rocks and steady mountains
Green green nature
And then water everywhere
Wild and mighty and unpredictable
Water in the sky, water on the ground
The restless sea, the enormous fjords, the flowing rivers
Thundering waterfalls unfolding water's greatest force
The landscape is purest nature
Seemingly untouched by humans
Making you feel connected, inspired and humble
Small and irrelevant, but in a positive way
You feel a little unwelcome at the same time
This is not here for you, not because of you
You can only stand there and look at it in awe
I am a person of water and earth
But I began to miss the fiery heat of the sun
Finding balance.
Oh, so many waterfalls. There is no way I could ever have a enough of them.
I didn't want to write poetry in this post originally, but I started to write about Norway and how it made me feel and suddenly I realized that I was writing a poem. Oh well, why not?
Check out my previous posts on Norway where I talk about whether I recommend it as a travel destination and talk about which spots I loved. But overall Norway simply impressed me with its beautiful wild landscape.
