Cattle die, and kinsmen die,
And so one dies oneself;
One thing I know that never dies:
The fame of a dead man's deeds.
Lovely set Dumitas. Once upon a time there was a significant someone that was dearest to me. We're young and in love and nothing at the time could break us. I apologized if I'm being candid its just that this beautiful set, stirs up pleasant memories of my youthful days. The rainbow, it's beautiful because it was our first rainbow. It true as what they say, you'll never love a woman like your first.

And to skew from the original verse, since poems rarely well survive translation artistically, I might as well butcher that along with the image.
Cattle die, and kinsmen die,
And so one dies oneself;
But clans survive, and stories thrive,
And deeds are eternal wealth.
Interesting effect on water, I like it. Photoshop?Hopefully I'm not stepping on toes here, but thought I'd try to spike the lightning a bit.

Yes, the verse is self-modified based on the theme. Any similarity to a direct literal translation is purely coincidental.Interesting effect on water, I like it. Photoshop?
And did I understand correctly this verse is your own remix, or an actual translation from Old Norse you can point to?
