Will Swords Rise Up?
Will swords rise up
from the mists of time?
Swords, knives, helms
tossed into
watery depths –
at the end of the world
will they be reforged?
Mist rising in wisps, forming
hilt and blade
Swords of fire and earth
rusted away, ages ago
in lakes long vanished,
pools of myth.
Forged anew of
water and air,
on the last day
will weed-draped
ladies of the lake
rise to hand them forth,
girding the worthy?
