's prompt 'Enter the Dragon.' [link]
I thought it was a cool prompt yet I had no idea whatsoever how to write it, so I allowed my fingers to take over. I'm actually content with how it turned out.

We are the animals, the small minded beings.
The heartless ones.
They merely act like they see us do.
Love and they will love,
hate and they will hate.'

Why should Dragons be any different than a dog or cat? Love it, train it right and why wouldn't it be amazing?
Fear it and it'll be fear itself.
Trust it and it shall trust you.
Believe the best of it, and possibly it'll do the same.

Anyway, anyone who wants join in the prompt.

| Rights belong to me: | ]]> His breath…
Ahhh his bitter-sweet breath;
It tasted, smelled like acid.
You all fear him as a beast,
A wretched demon deserving to die!
But you don't understand, you never do!

His edged claws touched like lilies,
Caressed with the utmost of care.
His danger teeth grinned so wide,
At the mere sight of precious innocence;
His unbreakable scales no spear could scratch.
His tail, a whip as sharp as spikes,
Could kill with just one strike.

His eyes, ohhh those blood red eyes,
Words are so few to describe such beauty.
Yet you fear that deadly stare-
Which is really not so deadly.
You see a monster, you perceive him as one.

but I'm not really submitting it for the contest. I am however submitting it for the

"Enter The Dragon" contest!!

For Knownames; I decided not to focus on a particular mythical story but rather on one of my favorite mythical creatures; the dragon.
For LITplease; I opted to focus on how dragons are represented and in a way demonstrate how there is a bit of a dragon in all of us, because even though I was born in the year of the monkey, I've always identified with the dragon. Also, the reason the dragon rises out of the water is because 2012 is the year of the Water Dragon.

I chose this because I identify with the dragon more than any other mythical creature. A friend of mine once asked me what my favorite mythical creatures were and I said a dragon and a phoenix. When he asked why I said "Dragons are ferocious, they're clever, they're protectors, they're massive and strong and you'd think they'd destroy everything smaller than them, yet they've an acute sense of pride and they make fantastic mothers. Phoenixes are a literal circle of life, they are proof that everything can be reborn from ashes, because death is never the end, we will always return to be something new."

I still believe that and so I decided to write about how a dragon will destroy everything that stands in its way, or in the way of someone/something it cares about.

The actual information that inspired this poem can be found here: [link]

Good luck to everyone taking part in the contests!!!

As always, comments and

s are love!!

A single roar resonates for miles around,
echoing through the mountain-side as the
leaders cower in terror from the fury.

Rising from the murky waters of the river
breathing fire over all that it despises,
the dragon aserts its' power.

The libraries are left untouched while
the scholars flee for their lives,
precious tombs are left untouched.

A few stand behind the angered creature
awed by the courage and rage before them,
they are the protected ones.

As the musicians continue playing the beast
blows smoke into the gates of the prisons,
almost as if trying to cause chaos.

The music calms the dragon and it
low ]]>

At first I wanted to do something inspiring and serious, but nothing sounded right. So, I just put pen to paper and this little ditty popped out.

Enjoy! ]]> My dragon roar was deafening.

I flew above the atmosphere;
My dragon wings were soaring.

I drank in clouds like sweet champagne;
My dragon tongue was tingling.

I fell down from the kitchen table;
My dragon form was fleeting. ]]> LITplease's poetry prompt.
