The day she stopped believing in dragons
Light hid in the shadows
For the sun once so bright
fell from the sky
And the moon hung low
Descending deep into the
ebony sea ...where dreams,
were but mere wishes upon
the Nile flowing no more
And trees bent in silent
reverence
To the darkness
Guided by memories of old
Illuminated only
in the heartbeat
of a lone star-
never giving up hope
the dragon still soars
In search of home
