Viking Funeral
By Michele Brenton
Lay him down
Dress him fine,
Weave flowers in his beard;
For he is loved,
He is mine,
Paid for with my tears.
Battles over,
Warrior King
Respected by his peers;
Hold his image
Sing his songs
To echo through the years.
Upon the waters
Send him well,
Let the flames begin;
Valhalla waits
While my heart breaks
And yearns to burn with him.
Lovingly submitted by family.
