Dragon's call

We used to be many, we used to be grand
before we were hunted and killed by the man.
We used to hold magic, so dear to this place;
we used to have strength, and beauty, and grace.

You wanted to take all our magic away.
You were our hunters, and we were your prey:
You sought your fulfilment through our sweet blood;
our magic and life stripped away in the mud.

Killed by your ignorance, we are still strong.
You are the weak one, you are the wrong.
We hold our spirit's head up high;
our love for you, we will never deny.

Loved in our absence, feared when we're near,
but if you knew us, you'd know not to fear.
Sweet elementals, dragons we are.
Don't worry old friends, our love travels far.

Hold on to your love for us, hope for a view
of a mighty old dragon and one just as new.
Be loving to all nature's creatures who crawl,
so that in the future, you might hear us call.

    Nicely written - interesting poem. May I point out strength, fulfilment, absence, nature's creatures?
