1301: Icelandic Love Affairs

Publication (Outlet/Website): Medium (Personal)

Icelandic people are indirect if they don’t like you,
direct if they do,
and honest in either case.
A love affair with an Icelandic person is succinctly described as follows:
A firecracker.
Short, explosive, seen,
and somehow working in spite of the cold,
the rain,
the wind,
Icelandic love affairs are bright, flashy, lovely,
and brief,
as a rose.
