hearty men piped to action

Viking Sword

Blacksmith's massive hands
delivering powerful hammer blows,
beating glowing red steel 
into submission.
Sparks illuminating
magnificent artistry.
Fiercely wielded
in the name of Odin.
Tales heralded it's glory.
Unearthed, virtually unscathed.                                         
Instrument of death,
1,200 years at peace.

waxed skis glide smoothly
tracks on fresh, crisp, moonlit snow
frozen woodland sounds

Safe In the Shade

trout's relentless hunt
rippling stream over smooth rocks
fry cower in shade

Good Morning

cool, damp, morning air
flowers smile at the gold sun
willows slowly sway

Russian Cat

unchallenged danger
Siberian tiger stalks
fearful boars panic
