Dragon Spirit




Standing in awe at the sight before me.

Eyes of fiery red.
Scales black as coal.
Smoke lingering from it's nostrils.
Wings that spread ten folds of my reach.
It's claws long,sharp,and deadly.

A growl and a snicker,
Then in a raspy voice he speaks,
Claiming to be protector over me.

A friend not a foe he appeared to be.
Yet a fearful sight indeed.

Placing a stone in my hand, I felt your charge surge through me.
Now we are one, bound together for all eternity.

Shall I need him, I only but have to call his name.
For he is my protector,guardian and friend.

He is my "dragon spirit" from now til the end of time

    This was very good. I liked your flow and the whole jist of it. This is interesting that its your friend, not a foe because I think that lots of people think of dragons as mean and ugly and deadly creatures. This was a great write and keep up the great work! Thanks!

    That was shorter than I expected. It was nice, though, I like how you say that he was a friend not a foe.

    nice

    Wow this is an great write, I absolutely love dragons and I like the fact that this one is a protector and friend. Usually they end with the human being killed or the dragon being slayed. Your words are very well done and I like the use of imagery, how you described the dragon (The scales black as coal, etc.)

    Once again this is a great piece of work congrads and good luck in the contest!
