From the moment they took flight
They soared into what must have looked like the heavens to them
Magnificent creatures who could see above all else
Feeling untouchable
Almost God like
They could go over any mountain
Soar over any ocean, just barely letting their wings graze the water
Diving down and capturing their prey
Like a shadow suddenly emerging from the skies
Beasts to be feared by creatures who lack the ability to soar freely
To have such freedom
To take flight and be carried by the wind
And in the blink of an eye
That freedom was taken away
The Gods sent down their fury
Flames fell from the heavens
Those of the sky and those of the ground
Left as nothing but ash
But in their time
The Pterodactyl was the Ruler of the Skies
