Freyja's Rival

Freyja’s Rival ( And may the Great Queen of the Norse Forgive me ) It’s a sun scintillation of a today The sky a sharp atmospheric Crystal blue chimes Reaches to the untold dominion of stars Crisp light softens the out shouting colours Temperance to dancing whispers “Quiet now” says the Sun “Other lovers are out shinning today” Your eyes a sparkling flash of azure Smiling so long and so deep Happy has anchored itself On your complicit lashes And you are far too beautiful For my heart to withstand Such captivating mysteries of an Elfin legend They say that Freyja was Queen of the North The Gods had blessed her With flaming hair She was the desperate love Of many a brave warrior The sun licks her fire inflamed And prances with breezes Lifting your curls and locks in scattered incendiaries Flows red with the blood heated in my veins Would that I could see you now Standing there naked And bathed in your glory My nymphet Queen Sure that those shades Are the boundaries of your purple Burgundies wings Striking their flutter On the bright surroundings of living green But I must content myself In the curves of your pale blue chiffon Knowing that the Norse Queen is a little jealous Of the Queen of the South For a mother and a woman have left me so impressed That loves ever pull egress To your direction Repeats in my soul Its forgone conclusion And there beneath an old grand oak We sat and littered the picnic table With all manner of fairy cakes And sipped on the wine The sweet wine of our life In your sparkling laughter of this days happiness You were more magnificent Than any Elfin Princess And anymore love my heart could contain Would pour from my chest And race giggling to the dizziest heights Of sharp atmospheric crystal clear blue Reaching out to the dominion of stars To call out your name To be sure They would hear me My love

Being Swedish, I have always loved beautiful, powerful Freyja, this was beautiful. but I can almost feel her jealously rising after reading this, comparing her to another who proved to be more lovely that her. :) lol well done, so much emotion and lust! love, Kristin

Well first of all anything that starts with begging forgiveness has got to be good. I don't know you well Colin but the thought that you can write with such knowledge of fairy tales and Elfin Princesses is a delight. Wouldst thou name more likely to be..Tiwaz
