Sigurd Our Golden Collie, and Other Comrades of the Road

In this lyrical collection, the narrator follows Sigurd, a golden collie, from his myth‑inspired puppy days through the wide‑eyed curiosity of his early adventures. The verses blend old Norse legend with the simple pleasures of farm life, casting the dog’s loyalty and mischief in a warm, almost reverent light. Readers hear the echo of ancient sagas alongside the soft patter of paws on a Norwegian hillside.

Interwoven with Sigurd’s tale are a suite of companion pieces—short poems and sketches that celebrate other road‑bound creatures, from a mischievous robin to a reflective cat perched on a church porch. Each vignette is crafted in gentle rhyme and vivid imagery, inviting listeners to pause and savor the quiet moments of nature and companionship. Together they form a heartfelt tribute to the bonds that tie humans, animals, and the wandering world together.
