"Tears of a Dragon"

the birth and beginning of a new world for me.

"Tears Of A Dragon"

 

 

falling....falling...a dragon is weeping...

 

Do Dragons weep?

I know not.

What is the realm of reality?

Who is to say?

Not I.

 

Can there not be wizards, and fire lizards?

Are you certain of your answer?

How can it not be so?

If in our hearts they come and go?

Ah! But alas the world says NO!

But stop and think, are you sure of that?

 

Not so very long ago...the world was flat.

 

Yet in a brave heart a dream was born,

The dreamer was met with ridicule and scorn.

 

Had that dream been let to die,

What then would have become of you and I?

I find it amazing when people can bring forth a seemingly simple collection of words and create an abstract of the world. Your direct statement "Not so very long ago...the world was flat." was the perfect trigger to make me sit back and for a moment reflect on the incalculable things we human do not know.
Getting the reader to think. Now that is awesome!

Wow, amazing!! I found it very much unique. The style and concept were very good. I liked leaving questions unanswered in your poem.

Shaken, I suspect, in this lovely yearning poem. Progress through history holds you steady. I'm sad "the world says no". Maybe you need to fly past the judgment and claim more of your dreams.

Good to believe in the myths. Allow us to dream and have some hope. I like the desire and the good question at the end of this poem. Thank you for the outstanding poetry.
