When the Skies Danced

Have you watched the skies dance with light?
Heard the thunder more like a roar?
For ‘tis on such a moonlit night
That one may give heed to dragon lore.

When a million stars twinkle and bow
To the forked tongues and fiery lash
Of Dragons soaring ‘neath *Hecate’s brow
While like waves, the clouds boom and crash.

Yet many may never accept the fact
Of beasts living among the clouds
They prefer to accept them with evil’s pact
At home behind Hades dark shrouds.

Nay, I’ve not witnessed their winged flight
Nor seen them from here on the ground
But I can imagine their great might
Might harbor in the cloud’s white mound.

So next time you’re touched by the sky
Or watch the clouds move on the wind
Think to yourself that dragons do fly
They’re just not seen by the eyes of men.
