Amanda Moore Poet Tanka

Loki

 Loki
In days of Old Norse
Tales of the trickster were heard
Stories of his deeds
The sly one, the shape changer
Had wicked tricks up his sleeve

Loki had two sides
Bringing treasures to the Gods
Then he brings chaos
The blood brother to Odin
The legend that is Loki

James Fraser July 21, 2011 at 1:42 PM Norse mythology is certainly worth writing about. It's a total world of it's own, and so much material within it to write about. Thoroughly enjoyable read Amanda :) Amanda Moore July 21, 2011 at 2:09 PM James I love history whether folklore or fact. I have used Henry the Vlll, the Lockness monster, Samson and Delilah and the Knights Templar amongst others, the best part is reading up and learning new facts before you start writing it keeps life interesting. I like to learn new things ... = )
