For Freyja

Above all things, You make me feel
cherished. I am adored by You.
As the waves rush to meet the damp rocks, I love You.
As the sun glints off of a warrior’s breastplate, I love You.
As gold glitters in the moonlight, I love You.
As flowers grow to greet Your brightness, I love You.
In all that I am, You are there.
In all that You are, I follow.
You are Beloved to me, Shining Lady.
May I never leave Your side.
