The Wizard

Wizard in the wind is found silent and alone
at night to grasp moments of joy and spring
when they surface in wine goblets filled
with white cloud and fog from the moors.

Mysteries of life bound by dreams created
as nightmare sitting on the balcony. 
Eyes of the mind are created as ruby
skies where loves elusive moments are
hidden for poets to find.

Wand waved, magic mumbled in whispers float
across the graves of brave knights templar
long since ghostly forms to float above
the cold dusty floor.  Sprite would touch
their armor to raise them, and walk over skies
pink and plum on the horizon as night comes
the sun slips away.

Witches with crystal ball and loud wails
seek revenge to stay their time as they
find entrance to dragon cave. Lashes bind
wings, throats croak out fireballs as red
and yellow dragon bid the brew that enchants
their spirit.

Wizard calls loudly from the mountain top
while his opal sparkles held to his staff
with claw top. Clouds gather dark, as silver
flashs strike on the ravens tree. The witches
cloaked with feathers fall from the sky.
Stars again sparkle across the night as
the world is free of the bewitched.

    It flowed nicely and used lots of great imagery! It's a great story and I liked the bit with the dragons wings bound as it made me think oh no but it was all alright in the end
    Good Luck!
