Today's Flowers: Do not tread on the grass....



Please visit Today's Flowers and see lovely flowers from other bloggers!

Du ska itte trø i graset
Spede spira lyt få stå

Do not tread on the grass
Let the tender sprout be

Mållaust liv har og ei mening
du lyt sjå og tenkje på

Life without ability to speak has a purpose
you should see and consider

På Guds jord og i hass hage
er du sjølv et lite strå.

On Gods earth and in his garden
You are your self a tiny straw.

Dikt/poem av Einar Skjæråsen
Please excuse my own translation - it is difficult to translate one of Norways most famous poets!

Rune Eide sa...

Jeg skjønner det at etter at du ble med må man skjerpe seg! Det siste bildet var imponerende på alle måter - jeg må ut og krype i gresset!

De engelskspråklige har et problem - den teksten er nesten ugjendiktbar. Vakkert!

Kom liljor och akvileja kom rosor och saliveja kom ljuva krysmynta kom hjärtans fröjd.etc.Tror jag.Jag kan ha blandat ihop blommorna :o)

Det är det enda jag kommer på just nu. Men vad sången heter vet jag inte.

Maria Berg sa...

Tycker om att Kom liljor och akvileja kom rosor och saliveja kom ljuva krysmynta kom hjärtans fröjd! också känns igen av dig!

Ja, gräs kan verkligen var härligt att titta på men jag måste också säga att det är skönt att gå barfota på också. Det är så vacker när ljuset lyser iegnom.

Arija sa...

Just as I love Duerer's study of a sod of meadow, I love your studies of grass. You did well with the translation of the poem, the sense certainly came across.
It is good to realise that we are just as transient as the grass, and that the smallest pebble was here many thousands of years before us and will remain when we are long gone.

Helge sa...

Mye fine bilder og vakre ord..:-)

Anonym sa...

Very nice pics, thanks for sharing

Regina sa...

Beautiful as alwasy!

Anonym sa...

Lovely photos so soft but the color is intense, and then you little flower nestled in those blades, beautiful.

Congratulations for been a new member of TF! You deserve!

Have a nice week!

Unknown sa...

Stunning details! Really incredible. I was in Norway with a country music entertainer a few years back and had a wonderful time. I remember a very old church, one of the oldest in the world they say, that we visited in some small town on the coast.

nonizamboni sa...

Amazing photos and now I have a new poet to research!

EG CameraGirl sa...

WOW! Fabulous!

RA sa...
