Tempted dragon
broken fire
Forever chosen
marked fantasy
Space between
below and never
Spirit keeper
treasured beast
Dragon Carving in Yuyuan Garden, Shanghai, China

Special Note: This poem started as a poetical inspired by sci-fi and fantasy book titles. I ended up playing with it a little more by adding a few new words until I realized how well it went with this photograph. My muse is once again jumping from mode of creativity to another!

Can I keep him, huh, can I? Can I, please? I promise to feed him, and walk him and–
Lol! Sure, just keep a fire extinguisher handy.
The ancient sages say ‘do not despise the snake for having no horns for who is to say it will not become a dragon’. So may one just man become an army.
Ooooo, I like.

Good poem. I like it.

Thanks so much!
I’m just sitting here, watching a preview of an upcoming film on one of the movie channels … and the title is: There Be Dragons!!!
Loved the poem … and the dragon too! Think I’d need a rather large fire extiguisher, though
Lol! I love it when that happens!
I like your muse’s style CB.
Thanks! I’ll be sure to tell her.
I want to paint those toe nails… just sayin’
Hahaha! Pearly white?
Very nice.
Very, very wonderful dragon, and your words give him a great voice.
Thanks!
I thought he was so cool when I saw him – he’s actually sitting on top of a huge wall!
Great poem and image. The first two lines ROCK!
a treasured beast, indeed!
