a beast most fowl of fire does wait in lie Against the odds of life and limb and more one man of blood and steel awaits the cry In darkened cave among the bones of prey fierce lizard green does wait in sleep of when a soul of strength most brave does come to slay this demon winged by piercing heart through skin A crunch of bones upon the floor does wake the foe of man to be most careful then for slaying is the chosen death to take as dragon’s last foul breath is taken in The steel is swung and strikes a mighty blow as shrieks from in the gut of beast emit Blood and bowel from evil creature now flow as flash of steel does rend scaled flesh to split Shadow cast o’er the moon at sound of cry as then a dragon soars in hunting flight in want of heart of man as one must die beneath the silver moon of star filled night [This message has been edited by Magnus (05-05-2002 10:38 AM).] |

Magnus darling boy this is utterly utterly perfect, you’ve really surpassed yourself this time. Normally your writing is superb, in this one poem you have painted a picture of such clarity that I can see the vision This is exceptional writing, certainly I’ve come to expect the very best from you, creatively and in language form. This is a real beauty, and absolutely wonderful first class piece. YOU do know I LOVE this don’t you? Good it is splendiferous Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |
