A dragon's life

A dragons life circles an eternity of time
A pagan rite a simple ryhme
It's teeth are long it's claws are sharp
Such delicate sound the music of a harp
It's body is armored in plated scales
This old man weaves the most wonderful tales
It's eyes are wise seen so many lives
Lost in useless cause a child cries
It's memory long it's power great
A sudden flood throws wide the gate
It's breath holds the heat of the stars in the sky
A smoldering inferno into the darkness shall rise
It's wings hold the winds so wild and free
Thunder you'll hear and lighting you'll see
These legends of old all storys are told
The nights closing in It's growing so cold..
