Dragon’s Dream
.
Two dragons cavort,
their wings have an unlikely beauty,
smudged with blood
spilled from celestial bodies.
She stretches her length,
glides
through the coloured universe,
displaying the glaze on her belly scales.
He sings from the earth.
Notes of yearning
raise her quickening heart.
She closes her seductive eyes
behind streamlined lashes,
swishes her tail coquettishly.
Lightening shoots from its spade,
glances off mass of purple, blue and gold,
forks through space,
strikes the orange armour of her mate.
Electrified,
he joins her in heavenly flight.
They burn through the night,
shooting stars
of dragon fire,
aflame with love.
