File:There Sat Idun With Her Beautiful Hair Falling Over Her Shoulders.jpg

Three Haikus for Idun

I
thiazi was clever:
steal the goddess,
not the apples

II
it is the goddess
who nourishes the apples
which nourish the gods

III
she sits in her tree,
in her garden, and watches
the gods play, laughing
