[Battle Two] An Offer

Stretching my wings
I beckon to the soft moonlight,
a question in my eyes
as I meet yours.

And upon seeing the sorrow
that settled in your heart...

I can offer shining Gold,
the coins themselves overflowing my keep -

I can offer glowing Jewels,
Emeralds and Sapphires galore,
pristine beauty only found
deep within my caverns...

I can offer Weather of your liking,
and Wind that powers your flight -

I can offer flowers of Fire,
lighting your path
and decorating your lands.

And yet I percieve this is not what you want.

I can offer a listening ear
and advice, should you need it -

I can offer long flights,
secrets whispered from one to the other...

Friendship is the gift
many need the most...

And that is the highest gift I can offer.

And a question
lingers in my eyes
as I meet yours...

Do you accept, Black Dragoness?

    Welcome!

    A great 'intro' to your character. I just ran across it and am pleasantly surprised by its creative take. You did well, Dragon Poetess.

    ooohhh...nice background! I'm officially in love with it.

    Interesting Black Dragoness thing *looks at comments* looks like you've been accepted.

    This has some really nice imagery and description in this.

    *spazzes about Athena actually writing a poem*

    Great job!

      *raises eyebrow* I do write poems! I have 17 poems on the site

      Granted, half of them are horrible... I still don't like them. Except my Staring out the Window one. Now I'm getting a big head, hehe

      Anyways, thank you. I like the background, too.

    I, The Black Dragoness, accept the gift of friendship, for it is the gift most cherished by one such as me. A gift to be treasure.

    Thank you, my dear.

    *nods head in honor*
