GLASS DREAMS

Dragons can be malevolent and evil beings that rage and pillage and burn,
They can be slow and unwieldy, hiding in the dark caves and caverns,
Maybe the are bold, serpentine swimmers, taking down ships and men,
Or maybe they are rainbow giants, with colors enough to outshine the sun.
Dragons can be wise and gentle creatures enlightened into godhood,
Or carve rivers and mountains on their lumbering way,
They can be cunning tricksters capable of taunting and giving,
And thieve princesses, princes, gold gems, and treasure in one day.
Dragons are powerful creatures that embody any whims at all.
So if you choose to imagine,
whether that be fearful or gentle,
Dream carefully.
