The Vikings often fished for cod along the coast We know as Greenland since they had noticed Where the ice had thawed, green grass grew Olav, the hairy, thought it would be a good idea To bring cattle and women to herd cows to the island and on the longboat where the Vikings That had turned to fishing instead of pillaging The coast of France thought this was a grand idea; furthermore, it was tiresome sitting in a boat without toilet facilities and not having a ***** to lighten the onerous life. Bringing cattle to Greenland was a likable idea From Hammerfest in Norway, a steady stream of Viking families with cattle, women, and children They began farming in the cove where the grass was the greenest, life was busy There was no interest in settling when the cows were fat the women were pregnant, so they sailed back to Hammerfest and waited for the summer season; however, when the weather got cold again, the ice didn’t thaw the place abandoned What the Vikings didn’t know about Greenland was that Greenland had been tropical with palm trees and beautiful beaches, where only the rich at the time could afford to go on a holiday, we know the sort dealing in precious stones Now that ice is thawing again in Greenland and Donald Trump has declared an interest in this neglected island the Greenlanders can look forward to a bright future.
