Sea And People Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen
Sea And People
Sea and people
An island came up from under the sea
And soon it became green and pleasant
Fit for dairy production, and cats that
Took care of the rat plague.
Man, and animals in idyllic harmony but
For the rats and attacking seas-birds.
Roaring sea appropriated the island
Occupied and flooded the land,
Simply retracted and made the island into a reef.
Endlessness of peace but dangerous for shipping.
