Dragon Cycle 5: Death and waking

Fire sweeping over the land,
destruction and death,
the dragons are free.
-
Hate and fury in the village,
wings bring storm
and burning hail.
-
The fire burns the woman,
burns the man,
the dragon nears the child.
-
Eyes of fury meet the fear,
nostrils taste
the anguish of the child.
-
Fire builds deep in the guts,
leaps from teeth,
and stops down dead.
-
A cry meets dragons fury
"Leave my sister!"
The dragon stops.
-
From rags beneath the window board
a child rises
and stares the dragon down.
-
Fingers grow to dragon claws,
Teeth grow sharper, skin goes black,
fire burns the clothes. A dragon returns.
-
A voice of power, voice of War,
"We will not fight,
Not anymore!"
-
Bows then down to the childs big eyes,
Hot breath on her face,
quietly speaks:
"On my back you ride today,
we shall from now together stay,
and fly the winds as one."
