Stories from on High

Stories from on High

A Poem by Hunter Hughes
"

Ahh a relaxing piece of poetry.

"

The wind pelts my face

Storm clouds ride the violent currents

Heat boils in me; a part of my race

Below me sounds a loud cry

      

My head turns to better hear

The sound of prey recognizing death

Heavy horns scrape my scaly ear

A heavy growl; smoke fills my breath

 

My wings beat a dreadful song

My prey can see me now

They know it won’t be long

To me they will all fall and bow

 

They know me from stories heard when lost in their flagon

Today is not the day that they expected to meet a Dragon

Very good read, excellent rhymes and I love the overall scheme of it. Maybe on your next poem you could try to fit it into a standard meter to help with the flow, it'll help the poetry roll off the tongue more easily if you were to read aloud. Only a suggestion, but otherwise you did a wonderful job. Thank you!

Brilliant.

Thank you for not messing it up,
I figured this is a Dragon in the second stanza, but in my head I was going like
''please finish with it please finish with it, please finish with it.''

And you executed it well.
Cool Poem, I enjoyed it mate.
