Three swords


Three swords...


a girl child told her mother...
there must be giants living here...
when she saw the 3 towering swords...
standing in the rock by the water...


They stand where a long ago battle...
was won or lost (depending on who's talking) by the fjord...


A poem on Stavanger-web.com


Did you hear in Hafrsfjord how hard they fought the high born king against Kjotve the Rich. ships came from the east wanting to fight, with threatening throats of dragon fierce. -
