In front of the iron gateway

She stood, thinking about her life

She was once a princess, fair

Now a woman, filled with strife

Things were becoming impossible

With each day, she tried to decide

Should she open up the bars?

And step into the realm, on the other side?

Something told her, she’d better chance it

Dare not leave a dragon, waiting for his bride

One last glance, then through the doorway

Uncertainty leaving her, by the wayside

Laying among the wildflowers

Two wyvern hearts do meet

Their body’s close together

Their kiss, becoming sweet

As morning light does brighten

The clouds, in soft display

Their souls now intertwined

With a true love they portray

They’ll lay among the sunbeams

Watch the magic of the sky

And spend their days quite happily

Where none shall question why

Two dragons that are not the same

Can fulfill each other’s soul

Blending into one, embraced

They make each other whole

Runes glow, as she summons

He awakens to her mystique

He feels her heartbeat, thrumming

His eyes wide, wings spread, so sleek

He can hear her chanting, intone

Knows it is he, she beckons to her

She sits patiently, waiting, alone

His growl, now a low, rumbling purr

With the dragon sword, she shares fire

As she looks to the gods, high above

He moves closer, to quench his desire

She remains, expecting her one true love

Unafraid, she knows he approaches

She‘ll seduce him, with beguiling wiles

As the nighttime sky now encroaches

And the dragon, so deviously, smiles

I have found the dragon books
Where stories are told, of chivalry

Dare not try to take them
For I lived these tales, so vividly

Each page, now burned with words
Every breath I took, now written

Makes me feel quite wonderful
In fact, I’m really smitten

With myself, these days, I journey
To find the rest of my family

Bound together by human hands
In some place called a library

I hear they have many books there
I really cannot wait to see

I hope they let me through the door
So I can finish my dragon tree!

Slay the Dragon ~ #poetry of #faith & #courage

Authors Note:  We all have those demons hidden away.  This poem reflects the triumph over the evil.  Words in boldface, at the end of the poem, are the partial lyrics to the song “Slay the Dragon”, written by my dear friend, John Kooch.  Used with Permission.

Darkness hides in closets, deep

Awakens, when you’re fast asleep

Lurking in the corners, where

It roams about without a care

Closing in, around your bed

This demon lies, inside your head

Don’t let him get the best of you

Fight! With everything that’s true

“In the dark, behind closet doors
I’ve got mine, I know you have yours….
Slay the dragon, all the courageous are blessed
Slay the dragon, until there are no dragons left”
