Dragon
Eyes of gold looking deep into your soul
Wings rustle impatiently folding neatly to the side
You wait as he judges your self, your soul, and your life
Talons stretch out grating on the stone
Will it be death or servitude in his decision about life
His tail snakes behind you moving you closer to him
The dragon breathes out flame and ash bathing you in the flames
Eyes wide open you stare in amazement – you are fine
Servitude is the dragon’s choice for judging your soul
Chains of loyalty and love bind you stronger than any metal
Knowledge and power is granted from his kind to you
Friends you make and forge crossing between the lines
Those that don’t understand ask why
Those that comprehend only nod their head and smile
Dragon eyes of gold amused at your kind draw you deeper
Deeper into the world of dragons because at heart you are one of them
Not of human kind.
Emotions stowed deep inside you learn to see with dragon eyes
Decisions are made and some not kind
Reasoning and logic don’t always rule where dragons have their lair
Sometimes the emotions come into play when the dragon least expects it to
Like taking on a human being as their child – to love and teach throughout time
Wings rustle and eyes bear down on the human raised as dragon-kind
One of theirs definitely in mind and soul – breathing fire they all give a gift
Dragon skin, dragon talons, dragon mind and dragon heart to their child
And dragon you shall be throughout the end of time.
