"Now I build in the nearest pine
and each morning when I wake
it threads its needles with gold."

  1. Thank you for these words from Olav Hauge! I love his work and can never understand why he is not more widely read.

    "Don't come to me with the entire truth.
    Don't bring me the ocean if I feel thirsty,
    nor heaven if I ask for light;
    but bring a hint, some dew, a particle,
    as birds carry only drops away from water,
    and the wind a grain of salt."
