Odin's Son.
Charging through the sky in his chariot,
Protector of Asgard and Midgard,
Mighty Thor is the protector of us all.
With the strength of Mjolnir,
The giants fear he is near.

Hi Rollo
glad to have another Norse enthusiast on the site, I'm running into trouble with Volund and Sigurd but always on good ground with the Aesir. Keep them coming, here, a segment from a recent attempt.
...remnant pain comes like the whetstone-spur
lodged in the skull, back of the brain, and co-
incidentally with that easy bearer of old wounds,
the hammer god, god of the anvil, lord of goats,
we bear the mark of his chariot team fetched in:
Niost and Grisner. Half-blinded in the sun;
how they buck and nuzzle at first light
as if they were new born, indeed they are -
now Snarler is lame, and who to blame?
Not the bondsman so much the giants' son,
Malice, by any other name...

Hello, Dominic. That was a very good poem! I liked it.
I'm always on good ground with the Aesir too.
