Dragons of Today

plated metal scales and transparent glass eyes

symmetrical round wings aiding to your rise

protector of the people and weightless in the sky

penetrate the currents of judicious July

elegant and swift, your metallic flaming tail

trailing dust in distance, you’re faster than the gale!

 

take me somewhere else safe within your arms

somewhere without pains and all the little harms

take me on an adventure to a place way out there

faster and faster, flutter through air!

 

when we land safely back to earth, you may rest your wings once more

but you were born to fly the skies, the realm you’re destined for.
