The Dragons and the Skies
A fiery tale
Let’s talk of dragons and the skies.
You see, each time a dragon dies
A patch of sky goes dead with him
Becoming grey and dull and dim,
The stars and clouds move aside
And all the people who decide
To stay below the empty sky
Lose the ability to cry.
Without the rains, without the tears
The forest dries in seven years,
The grasses turn to yellow dust
And, angry gust by angry gust
From east to west, from south to north
The winds erode away the earth
And leave behind an angry chasm -
Until one day a heaving spasm
Releases fires from below,
And then, magnificently slow
A newborn dragon rises high
And flies across the waiting sky.
Until that chasm becomes a sea,
What can we do but wait and see?
