Elders
My dearest Elders, I thank ye for the gift,
For your blessed presence in my heart.
May between us there never be a rift.
And may our troth wax so strong we ne'er part.
Ye fill my soul like warm summer rain
As I see lightning sent by Thor in goat-pulled cart.
And Freyr has charmed the growing grain
While Matronae this land do walk
And the youngling pig for feast is slain.
I lift a horn and make solemn vow
To you who are so much more than men,
And ponder on Audhumla, the sacred cow.
