Bio:

Her Triumph

See the chariot at hand here of Love,
Wherein my lady rideth!
Each that draws is a swan or a dove,
And well the car Love guideth.
As she goes, all hearts do duty
Unto her beauty;
And enamour'd, do wish, so they might
But enjoy such a sight,
That they still were to run by her side,
Through swords, through seas, whither she would ride.

Do but look on her eyes, they do light
All that Love's world compriseth!
Do but look on her hair, it is bright
As Love's star when it riseth!
Do but mark, her forehead's smoother
Than words that soothe her;
And from her arched brows, such a grace
Sheds itself through the face
As alone there triumphs to the life
All the gain, all the good, of the elements' strife.

Have you seen but a bright lily grow,
Before rude hands have touch'd it?
Ha' you mark'd but the fall o' the snow
Before the soil hath smutch'd it?
Ha' you felt the wool o' the beaver?
Or swan's down ever?
Or have smelt o' the bud o' the briar?
Or the nard in the fire?
Or have tasted the bag of the bee?
Oh so white! Oh so soft! Oh so sweet is she!

~Ben Johnson

You know me. Even if you don't think you do. I am celebrated every week as my day hails the start of the weekend. I just wish everyone would quit saying "Thank GOD it's Friday." But things are turning around again. More and more mortals are remembering Freyja's Day, honoring the Goddess it's named for. Even if they just don't quite get how to properly honor me. But it's a start, I suppose. Think about the last really great, romantic weekend you had, and you will begin to understand why it begins with me.

Allow me to share a secret with you. Don't pray to me for love, then go about all pious expecting your perfect mate to simply knock on your door. Love at first sight is a farce, a saying for the hopeless romantics that read their novels with their cat in their lap, sipping a cup of tea. Lust comes first, love follows. It always has. So let your hair down. Unbutton that top button. Ladies, dig out those stilettos and short skirts. Find your own beauty and let it shine. Use it all to your advantage. Then the world will be yours.

I am Love. I am Beauty. I love to live and live to love. You might do well to follow my example. Want to know more? Grab a bottle of champagne and come up and see me sometime. I can teach you things you've never even dreamed.

I am neither Freyja nor Laura Vandervoort. This is a role playing journal. I am beyond_the_pale
