Missing Your Love

Hello and welcome to my Blog.

This issue’s poems and lyrics….

“Norsemen Song”. A set of lyrics with Vikings as the subject. Would probably suit a Viking metal band, or “Game of Thrones” fan? This is what comes following reading the Edda (Scandinavian stories).

Vikings like Pirates, have a romanticized image. The reality is that Viking culture was a blend of the warrior alongside arts.

”When will the wheel” Another song lyric. Seems at times that despite all efforts, no rewards come to you, but you have to keep on.

When you are poet, writer, artist, or other arts practitioner; then the work has to be done regardless of rewards back, since the expressions are part of who you are.

Poem of the week on the homepage is “Missing your love”. In Country & Western mode, a waltz; the lyrics reflect on how sometimes all you need is there but you don’t see it till it’s too late!

Thanks for reading my Blog. Till next time keep safe and well,

Best wishes

Louis

When will the wheel

VERSE #1

When will the wheel turn in my favour?

That random goodness that falls on others

Not yet me.

When will the blue skies, sun appearing

Warming me through

When will I see?

CHORUS

Wait and a while, the paths will open

Wait and a while, gifts you’ll receive.

Wait and a while, all wrongs are corrected

Just hang in there and believe.

VERSE #2

When will the work and plans seem fresh and easy

With symbols of success, that others flaunt

When will returns for my efforts invested

Appear in my hands, so bare, so scant.

CHORUS

Wait and a while, the paths will open

Wait and a while, gifts you’ll receive.

Wait and a while, all wrongs are corrected

Just hang in there and believe.

Norsemen Song

VERSE #1

We met with strangers on the plain

Tried to push them back, they came again.

Fights and quarrels in Valhalla’s hall

Keep your sword sharp

Stand don’t fall.

VERSE#2

Turning turning to the burning scene

What now is ashes, once was green.

See them running from Vikingr’s lance

Scattered and twisting in death’s dance.

CHORUS

Strike

And we go on again

Burn

With the scars we earn

Slash

Through the ranks before

Death

Only means fear no more.

Death means Valhalla’s here.
