nordic light show	

night of auroras
 swirling fiery spirals spin
  snow buntings call soft

purple green flashes
 leap across the artic night ~
  silver solitude

celestial outbursts
 magnetic sparks pirouette ~
  pink shadows on snow

scarlet reds cascade
 crazy northern lights unleashed ~
  ephemeral mauve

The Nordic Avalanche Queen
ODE TO THE AVALANCHE QUEEN

Brisk Arctic morning --
Where the giants gods rule
Nordic Dawn Queen ( clad in her fragile ice apparel) 
Twirls and rumbles through the ragged mountains
Seeking the object of her wrath and her affection.

Graceful in bold glory she strides
Mountain top to Mountain top--
Grinding...

Premium Member Nordic Dreams
Through forded streams, nostalgia seems, to be a sense of Nordic Dreams
The pathways to yesterdays, appear to retreat to ample schemes.
Broken nails and nightingales lighten up your brooks and streams.
Take a lock of broken stock to see what truly seems.

Lilt repose in lily throws, is...

NORDIC ECSTASY

You asked me a question, a nostalgic one
Where I was in the seventies
I was in the land of the midnight sun
With the descendants of the Vikings.

Looking at Norwegian rocks, their structure
Along the corrugated coast of the North Sea
I found myself on the lap of...

The Nordic Spring Is In Full Bloom
The small orioles from Tennessee have
migrated North, their yellow breasts
match the bright daffodils in the grove,
in the meadows, or in the plain's vastness.

It's very late April and the Nordic spring is
in full bloom today; there's little to envy,
although the deep South has more beauty
and warmth...

Nordic Ghost
The ghosts of fallen heros
Oftern visit me in my dreams
Telling me whats approaching
Telling me of there deeds

They encourage me to fight on
Making sure that i win
Their spectral presence surronding me
As i fight every battle on a whim

I dont know what they want of me
I dont...

Nordic Queen
Blond Nordic queen whom I would die for; care
not my pulse beats fast ever wanting thee?
Or care desire is more than I can bear
when by chance you at times walk close to me?
Blue eyes that make both knees to shake in hope
that smile from thy...

The Nordic Tribe
The Nordic Tribe 

There is a great movement of Scandinavians
going to the South of Europe, they have their church,
cafes and shops selling the type of food sold in
the North. The Spaniards, say, accept and ignore them
because these strange northerners came here for
the sun and not...

The Nordic Pyramid
The Nordic Pyramid

Up north, where I was born
there is a mountain in the shape of a pyramid 
of course, it is much bigger
dwarfing the Egyptian´ones.
It is snow-capped looks desolate
but every year I have noticed the snow crown 
is getting smaller 
now it is the size...

Some people will have lived through your pain, your anguish and fears.

Lament

Brooding days,
     Vanquished in the unconnected gloom,
            Shower frost,
Standing watch at dawn to pierce the morning
With an artic tempest,
Swirling ‘cross a land lost in forgetfulness:
     ...

Valhalla's Call
He walks alone, a shadow cast  
By memories too fierce to last,  
A warrior once, now lost, betrayed—  
By time, by fate, by war's parade.  
His brothers, bold, now rest below,  
Their blood, their courage, still they glow,  
In...

Sigyn's Wedding Day:Dedicated To Tina Eidam
I remember the day well though long has it been
Tied to the cold stone slab as I am
Buried in a cave made of sand
On a vanishing isle of heather
The memory hastens me back to happier times of mead, 
Food and of wedding bells chimes:
Her plain...

AURORA BOREALIS (Satis Shroff)

The sky was bathed
In fantastic hues:
Yellow, orange, scarlet
Mauve and cobalt blue.
Buto dancing,
In this surreal light,
On the stage,
Was magnificent.
Your heart pounds higher,
Your feet become light,
Your body sways
To the rhythm
And Nordic lights
Of the Aurora borealis.
Akin to the creation
Of the planet...

Ran's Nets
Rans nets, which bind and trap.
Ensnare and incapacitate all who swim in the oceans of life
I tangle thy golden skeins.
Your pearlescent webs that move in the voids between the 9 dimensions.
Your webs of final fate that float and dance between the worlds.
Ensnaring everybody in the...
