Legends They emerge from the shadows Like the lightning of the storm. The thunder roars and sky flashes As a battlefield is born. Steel meets steel and steel meets flesh As life and death are torn. Beaten and battered with spirits not shattered By the gods that they are sworn... The Valkyries - like the wailing wind - Pass through the flames and bloody fight To claim the souls of the brave and bold And take them far beyond the night To distant Valhalla, a sacred realm, Across the Rainbow Bridge and Asgard's gate To feast with Odin - the Lord of Battle - And Master of their Fate. |
Additional Notes:
This poem follows the Norse myths and stories of the "Einherjar" (heroic dead). It is the beginning introduction to an epic poem I wrote about the Twilight of the Gods - the Ragnorak. Thanks for reading.
