A MODEL HERO

O, dear friends! May I tell

a , tale of Graceful Norse God ?.

Odin or Woden of the Norse Myth

Father of gods and men on Earth

Faced much risk, to help His world

Mimir the God of Knowledge claimed

One of His eyes to share knowledge.

Suffering much studied Woden-

Runes on wood, metal and stone.

Ravens on either side of His shoulder

Fetch the news from far and wide

Thought and memory were two birds

Hugin and Munin they were called.

He got skaldic mead from the Giants

Touch of which makes anyone a poet.

Gracious Odin gave away His skills

To all gods and men of His reign.

Can you be such a heroic leader

To save our sighing Motherland?

=============================

Note:Norse Myth=Mythology of the Scandinavian area. The day of the Woden is Wednesday.
