There are many, many reasons to write poetry, certainly love, grief, pain, angst and joy... but then there is MAJIK... fantasy, far aways, prince and princesses. Worlds to save, battles to win and a portal to ............................ escape.......................

Where Are The Dragons?

‘scuse me kindly M’lady but… where do you keep your dragons
Are they just hid away, or lock’t in magic flagons
I’d like to see them loosed a bit, if you wouldn’t mind
With proper care and feedin’, I’m sure they’d be just fine

By the way, I’ve looked a bit, I think you’re out of elves
Unless of course, they’re waaaaaay up high, on long forgotten shelves
And what of all the little folk… the pixies, sprites an’ trolls
I’ll lay they’d liven up the place, they’re such mis’ch’vious souls

And wizards, Oh yes wizards! I beg you, they’re a must
And while we speak of magic spells, some witches too I trust
Now lest you think me bothersome, I’ll quickly ask of faeries
Lovely little fee and faye, might make our moods more merry

I’ll take my leave ‘for you perceive, I’m tootin’ my own horn
But if you’ve a yen for kith an’ kin, I’ll saddle up me unicorn.

Hi Sam,

Thanks again for giving this newbie such a great review. You encouraged me so much I posted three more this morning...lol.

I love this poem of yours! I will have to drag out some of my dragon poems for you. I've matured a bit now, and involuntarily! But I used to spend hours with my friends (fantasy books) and my best friends (of all ages) playing Advanced D&D and even owned a bookstore in my 20's that had three game rooms set up for my customers to play...ahhh those were the good old days and this took me back to the best time in my life. Thanks for that! May you be honored with having tea with a dragon and leave with increased wisdom and joy. Blessings, Pami xoxox unicorn.gif

My what a wonderful note. You've certainly made my day. It's quite a rush when I'm able to offer some encouragement. So happy, too, that you liked my poem. Thank you for such a sincere post with so much positive energy ! ! ! hsdance.gif

You're so very welcome! It's a good feeling to make someones day just by being honest.
I'm sorry to say I "Oopsed" this morning in that Lori had to delete my other two poems, I guess I forgot how we post here, but I'm getting the hang of it. Look for 2 new in the next 24 hours. Hope you have something for me too. Have a happy day! Pami butterfly.gif

Tee hee fairy.gif Wizard.gif legolas.gif Sam,

I really enjoyed this one and the wonders of this 'world'. You know, I'm a HUGE fan of LOTR and actually have been outlining a novel idea this past week (on & off). I've got the same character sorts on the brain as you but I much prefer your pixies, elves, trolls and wizards. BUT - where are the dragons? dragon.gif I love dragons and would most certainly NOT keep them lock't up, ergo DUNGEONS & dragons (love that too)...

I enjoyed the walk through this 'lady's' eowyn.gif store of goodies...

Morning Lori;

Many thanks for the wonderful comment and encouragement. Tolkien certainly is a favorite of mine as well. His books were filled with wonders not many can imagine. Good luck with your novel, I'm sure it will be rewarding in every aspect.
