Tor Magnor Solvang Poems

The stars are scattered, dust of light,
Across a velvet, endless night.
A universe so vast and deep,
Where secrets sleep, and planets keep
...

A whispered word, on Patmos' shore,
John saw a King, forevermore.

Not just a past, a story told,
...

Sixty-six stories, a river so wide,
One message whispers, deep inside.

From Eden's dawn to Heaven's bright door,
...

Alone in the wild, forty days long,
No friendly face, no comforting song.
Just sand and sky, and whispers within,
A battle fought, where shadows begin.
...

Life, a winding, wondrous road,
Where sunshine dances, shadows load.
A mystery woven, thread by thread,
With joy and sorrow gently bled.
...

Across the sea, a plan was made,
A 'Board of Peace, ' a path displayed.
America called, a hand outstretched,
To lands of cold, a plan to sketch.
...

Kant, a thinker, wise and deep,
From Germany, his thoughts did creep.
He asked, 'How can we know what's true? '
And what is right for me and you?
...

Sun wakes up, a sleepy gold,
Another day, a story told.
The path ahead, a misty gray,
We take a step and start the day.
...

A star's soft gleam, a world anew,
Where skies are strange, and dreams come true.

Not dust and rock, but signs so clear,
...

The bull's head lowers, strong and fast,
Don't walk in front, your chance is past.

The horse's heels, a sudden kick,
...

Love's true garden, cannot bloom,
While shadows linger in the room.
Darkness hides where trust once lay,
Chasing sunlight far away.
...

The highest seat, a heavy crown,
Can fall, if trust is broken down.
Article Two, Section Four, it says,
For the President, in measured ways.
...

Soft steps are good, when shadows creep,
When danger hides, in slumber deep.
Walk softly then, and hold your breath,
Avoid the clash, and dance with death.
...

A tweet from the past, brought back to light,
Charlie Kirk's words, in black and white.
Not for deer in woods, nor fear at night,
The Second Amendment, in his own sight.
...

The table's set, a game of greed,
With 'sane' leaders, planting seed.
Of empires built on borrowed land,
A monopoly held in shaky hand.
...

Across the lands, the People prayed,
To spirits strong, a world they made.
For hunts to thrive and harvests bloom,
To push back dark and banish gloom.
...

A legend whispers, soft and low,
Of life's last journey, where souls go.
A bridge of light, to skies so bright,
A path to Heaven, shining light.
...

A well runs deep, unknown before,
A Power wakes, and asks for more.
Not strength of self, but something vast,
A helping hand that's built to last.
...

A tiny hand, a brand new start,
Life's story etched within the heart.
From gentle steps to stumbling falls,
Each rise and dip within these walls.
...

A nation's heart, a gentle guide,
Is seen in how the young reside.
Do little hands reach out to play?
Are sunshine smiles found every day?
...

The Best Poem Of Tor Magnor Solvang

Alone In The Universe?

The stars are scattered, dust of light,
Across a velvet, endless night.
A universe so vast and deep,
Where secrets sleep, and planets keep
Their silent watch.

Life started early, here on Earth,
A tiny seed, a humble birth.
Almost four billion years have passed,
A story told, from first to last.
This makes us think, a hopeful plea,
That life's a common entity.

So many worlds, they spin and gleam,
Within the habitable dream.
Where water flows, a liquid grace,
A place to grow, in time and space.
'Earth 2.0, ' a whispered name,
Kepler's promise, fuels the flame.

Scientists believe, a hopeful band,
That life exists, across the land,
The cosmic land, so wide and far,
A distant twinkle, like a star.
Microbes maybe, simple form,
Surviving life, weathering the storm.

But silence hangs, a heavy shroud,
'The Great Silence, ' spoken aloud.
Where are the others? Where are they?
Why haven't signals lit the way?

Intelligence, a tricky thing,
Took ages here, to learn to sing.
From single cells, to thoughts so grand,
A slow ascent, across the land.
No guarantee, on other spheres,
Of creatures bright, dispelling fears.

The Drake Equation, tries to guess,
At chances high, of yes, or less.
But unknowns loom, like shadows deep,
Secrets the universe will keep.

Simple life, a likely chance,
A hopeful, captivating dance.
But wisdom's light, a rarer bloom,
Lost in the cosmic, silent room.
Yet still we search, with eager eyes,
For kindred souls, beneath the skies.

Though shadows linger, and doubts may rise,
The universe beckons, a sweet surprise.
And in the vastness, a chance remains,
For life's bright fire, in starry rains.
