Creation Tale

Opening poem for my novel, Dark Dragon, revealing the themes and expectations of the novel.

When mighty symbols clashed

The Universe was born

The Minstrel Strummed

The Piper Hummed

And the Wizard blew his horn.

 

The Great Game had begun

Chaos burst onto the stage

To the tune of war

Peace reigned no more

Space and Time, came of age.

 

Kings, Queens and Bishops

Seek a sacrificial Pawn

A Rook, a Cosmic Knight

Darkness against the Light

When the Wizard, blew, his horn.
