Before everything there is nothing <br />No stars, no heavens, no earth, no land <br />No ocean, no sea, no waves, no sand <br />From the cold realm of death, twelve rivers flow <br />Icy waters freeze the chasm slow <br />Bloody flames of chaos rise <br />fiery clouds born of Muspelheim skies <br />From land of fire they turn ice to mist <br />Out of fallen drops comes the giant's fist <br />Giant's death brings earth and sky <br />Sea of his blood if he should die <br />Before nothing there is everything <br />the stars in the heavens, the earth and it's land <br />The ocean, the sea, their waves that crash on the sand <br />Eternal life and death twist and turn <br />Rebirth's continual lesson to learn<br /><br />Nicholas McDonough<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/of-old-feb-5th-2003/
