Best Valhalla Poems

In Asgard, kingdom of the mighty God Odin
A place awaits all battle fallen warrior heroes
It's in Valhalla where there is endless feasting
And an ending of all griefs and sorrows

The Valkyries, Odin's warrior daughters
Carry the fallen heroes from the battlefield 
To Valhalla to join other fallen...

In the bay of icy mists, the viking ghost ships arrive, sails set full ahead,
Crashing anchors rattle loose, plunging beneath the cold murky surf,
As the hailing horns of the dead, announce to their lord, Odin, that
Valor's courageous have arrived, and wish to enter, the great...

The great expanse of the Mississippi
just outside a sleepy little ledge-locked
town in western Wisconsin called Maiden Rock,
is where we like to picnic in October.

Above the north/south railroad tracks at a spot
overlooking the river is our favorite picnic table.
A century old working well with an ancient...

Accompanied by my legion,
The most feared in the region.

Because we are stronger as one,
Taking enemies by the tons.

A brotherhood of family and trust,
Lucky to have the gods look down on us.

Finding pride in battles won,
Because we together are strong.

Said the viking when his enemies fled,...

To reign in your fire
to bask in your light
must be a pleasure
denied me tonight

  the light in your eyes 
still shows me the way
it doesn't grow dimmer
just farther away

  when you raised me up
when you took my hand
the world fell  away
and my...

Valhalla 

rest day
Sunday is the day of rest for most people
except for cooks, servers, and housewives 
They have Mondays
that day hasn't got many customers  
they can warm up, Sunday's leftovers
it is said ennui is the day when the brain rest
that is why the slamming...

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,

a mountain 
one views Bifrost
hoping, no, fighting for entry to the 
heavenly home of exalted Aesir
to find honor,
glory for

When the existential magic disappears
And life holds nothing more than
my terrestrial tears and frivolous fears
When feeding my mind is no longer empirical 
Or essential, as human hunger suffices, 
when I no longer thirst, and eminence gives no rise,
and sullen shibumi canopies worn and torn
shade not...
