Efterårsdigt / Fall Poem
Posted by Brian Dan Christensen in Autumn, blessed, fall, literature, Poem, Poetry, time, Uncategorized, Verse on November 3, 2019
(bilingual)
It’s like snow
The way the leaves are falling
It’s like fog
The way the crows are calling
It’s like time
The way the light is burning
It’s like thanks
The way the heart is humming
Det er ligesom sne
den måde bladene falder
Det er ligesom tåge
den måde kragerne kalder
Det er ligesom dug
den måde tiden svinder
Det er ligesom tak
den måde hjertet nynner
A Prairie Home Companion Cruise, 2017
Posted by Brian Dan Christensen in Humor, limerick, literature, New York, Poem, Poetry, satire, Uncategorized on June 24, 2017
A not-so young comedian of New York
On a cruise of not-so Norwegian ports
Made half the guests smile
The rest he bribed
To laugh and pee in their shorts.
(With thanks!)
Nobel Limerick

Honorable Nobel Committee
When you award me for being witty
Don’t share the prize
With three other guys
Or my mother will say, What a pity!
Let There Be Light Verse
Posted by Brian Dan Christensen in Humor, literature, Poem, Poetry, satire, Uncategorized, Verse on May 4, 2016
When facts are scorned
And lies prevail
It’s Hell on Earth
And Heaven in Hell
For common sense
Is quite amiss
Where ignorance is
No longer bliss
We need now, people
More than ever
The blueprints for
The Tower of Babel
To build it high
And let those climb
Who poison the minds
With guile and slime
Good riddance, we chant,
Now truth shall blossom
And let there be light
It’s totally awesome
