“I am wanting, I am thinking
To arise and go forth singing.
Sing my songs and say my sayings,
Hymns ancestral harmonizing,
Lore of kindred lyricking.
In my mouth the words are melting;
Utterances overflowing
To my tongue are hurrying,
Even against my teeth they burst.”
This commission is by the most amazing Meet, who is not only a wonderful artist but also such a great person to work with!
The poem is from the Kalevala - the Finnish epic that Sampo is tied to. Dividers are by chrisssiren 🖤
