Poems
We published these poems during the centennial. 'Black Crosses', 'Beneath the Crag', 'Don't Give Me the Whole Truth', 'To Li Po', 'Everyday', 'The Weathercock', 'Old Poet Has a Go at Being a Modernist', 'It's the Dream', 'I Chopped Down the Big Apple Tree by the Window' and 'Many Years' Experience with Bow and Arrow' are taken from Olav H. Hauge: Leaf-Huts and Snow-Houses translated by Robin Fulton.
