A Baking Prayer for Byggvir

by December Fields-Bryant

festival of bread in PolandHail to Byggvir and to His Lord Freyr
and Hail to His sweet wife
Hail to the colonies of bee and of yeast
I ask that your blessings sing
bubbling and buzzing
within my hearth.

The perfume of Your work
fills our home.
The nurturing work
fills our bellies.
For this, and more
We give thanks.
