...story within this jewel...
Our beloved 'wistfuldragon'
allowed the following poem to
flow freely from her mind to our site
which took place in the wee hours of the
morning, May 26, 2007...and freely flow it did.
Posting it in the DYMNUUS DRACNYL ... ... DOMAIN DRACONIA
thread in its untitled format...she thus displayed its genuine genius.
I am deeply drawn to this piece
as it merges a blend of whimsical and
mystical in a marvelous way. So, I sent
our 'wistful~one' a private message...with
this re-formatted version as a gesture of tribute.
Her reply was a request for me to re-post it as shared
in my message to her...new title and all. Yet as I was donig
this for her, I realized that her poem is a gem that deserved to
be posted within its very own thread...for others to be inspired by.
...so with that...
from the quill of 'wist'
to the dimensions of 'SEASONS'

FISHER~DRAGON

She ran full out
on purple dragon legs
pumping her wings hard
raising her head to the sky
Calling sweetly deep
"you can do it...yes you can..."
the edge of the cliff looming
it was now or never for the lift
Off the earth her feet went
wings catching the up draft fast
with a heavy sigh she trickles fire
"Boy howdy...I need to lose some girth..."
Soaring over the valley
she feels at home once more
knowing down below her friends
spin tales of great things old and new...
Freedom is such a gift
so as not to be taken lightly
for her it means she can be herself
without question...without judgement...
Spying the blue of water
she heads with passion for it
lazy circles...dipping wing tips...
thoughts of inner peace fill her...
***
Until
.
.
.
A lone fish...mean fish...
jumps high out of the blue...
to scare the living daylights out of her...
she flips...dips...tilts...weaves...high...low...
In what appears to be
a triple flip tail over nose
scoring a 10 to 12 on the scale
she belly flops...belly slides on the water...
Before sinking...
she's left thinking...
"You best swim little fish...
swim...swim...swim...I'm a wee bit hungry now!"
