Sif's Seasons

by Michaela Macha

Sif in CornfieldFrom springtime´s barley sowing,
Ears shining like the sun
Deck bald fields with their glowing,
A headdress newly spun.

The rain descends in summer
Midst Thunder´s rumbling clap
As gently as the hammer
Into the young bride´s lap.

With autumn come the thieves
To cut the golden hair,
Our folk again receives
A harvest rich and fair.

As winter fields lie fallow,
We cherish every sheaf:
We bake and brew and hallow
The golden gifts of Sif.
