Leather wings
Weathered skin
Protector of
The heart within
*
Fierce and bold
Able and true
Yellow eyes
With golden hue
*
Fiery breath
Against the sky
Loyalty shown
Willing to die
*
To save the love
Who holds the heart
of dragons above
and all ramparts
*
Born of ash
Return to dust
Flesh from bones
Soon to be crushed
*
Glory bound
Steadfast and true
Faithful as hounds
Strengths spirit renewed
*
To claim the truth
Return the spark
Burn bone and tooth
Light up the dark
*
Honor his love
Mother of peace
A delicate dove
A mighty beast
*
To her rightful throne
Amongst family strong
Reclaiming her own
The warriors song

This is fabulous. well done.
Fierce, courageous, loyal, willing to sacrifice all for that which is true. How can we not help but be inspired to rise up & return the same if we have read to the very end? Kelli, have you ever missed the mark with one of your poems? 'Cause ya pretty much hit the bullseye with this one.
Great piece❤️
Wonderful poem, Kelli!
