The Daily Haiku

A world of five - seven - five. At one time daily, now kind of sporadic.

Current theme: R is for Ragnarok (from Norse Mythology)

For ABC Wednesday

Horn of warning sounds
The final battle draws nigh
Begins Ragnarok

Rivers red with blood
The last stand of the Old Gods
Worlds torn asunder

But through the end time
Two hide and survive it all
Lif and Lifthrasir

Blessed by morning dew
Their descendents will rebuild
And the world goes on
