Poem of the Week, week 51: Hanne Aga "I See You"
Enjoy a weekly poem by authors from Norway, throughout the year.
I SEE YOU
You shine so brightly
that I have to close my eyes.
On my eyelids
my awakening dances
quite an eternity.
My heart does pole vaults.
Translated by Randi Marie Røsnes in Scandinavian Love Poems, An Anthology by Fritz König and Randi Marie Røsnes, Eget Forlag, Drammen, 2007, p. 2007.
