Thor, the Norse God of Thunder, had a hammer named Mjölnir. Mjölnir was considered a fierce weapon that could level mountains and summon lightning with every blow. In this poetry blog, every Thursday, (Thor’s Day), Mjölnir will forge only song - sing of the mysteries and beauties of the world.

NEST

 

a stricken 

gesture 

 

a nest, barren

poised and yet stalled

 

to take flight

it birds            seedlings

 

never ripe

enough to hatch


music           maracas

stilled in the wind

 

against a panoply of color

bursting with season

 

a tree, a reminder:

leave the nest

 

make life from life

fear paralyzes


freedom is

what flies
