Posted: 1/29/2005 3:27:26 AM | Incinerated? Never you!!!
My flames are not for those so true
I will keep them for the knaves
And maybe for the Knights so brave
If they ever come back here
I really hope they re-appear
What use is a Dragon, born of the Sun
Without a Knight to give him FUN???
So come on Knights and show your wit
I need a fight to keep me fit | |

Posted: 1/29/2005 7:57:56 PM | Yes you can hear me in the darkness,
The music of my wings
The glimmer in the moonlight
thats speaks of far off things.
And as the dawn grows closer
Look to the Morning Star
And watch my sillouette grow faint
For I am going far
I'm travelling to your memories
To where it all began
The saga that continues
Of Dragonkind and Man
In the dead, cold hours of night
Will you awaken from a dream?
For this Dragon is your conscience
And much more more than he seems
So I will go away for now
And wait for the twilight
Just remember I am always there
Not like these carefree Knights | |

no knights, no amour suits
no tools of their trade
swords nor shields
can anticipate, wraths of abundance
for knights on quests
will meet, thier demise
for fools, dare approach
one, made of fire and brimstone
born in earth's bowels
forged of hellish, lava sea's
never dies, only rebirths
gives ways to everlasting eternal lives
only to come back at vengence door
to all, who may oppose
myths before it nor post
sea beasts, in ocean's deep
dragons, with breathe of fire
can lay claim, to all worlds desires
for the phoenix,
is neither flesh nor substance
one, that cannot be touched
hotter than, the hottest of suns
so no one, is to bother
man nor beast
demi god or myth
can present, challenge proper
for phoenix, is everlasting
the day phoenix, exinquishes
and grows cold, his heart
and he is, no more
by means, beyond mortal men
this day, we all shall perish
for the phoenix, burns deep
within us all...

Posted: 1/29/2005 11:04:34 PM | Ah Phoenix... You have come at last
It's so good to see you here
Far from your home, in desert bleak
A place that has no cheer
The glory of your red and gold
brings memory to my mind
Been centuries since I have seen
Another of your kind
Look toward the sun that gave you life
And as it sets you'll see
A shimmer in the changing light
The shimmer will be me
Then we will talk of what has been
And what may come to be
Then I'll return back to my cave
And you back to your tree | |

Posted: 1/30/2005 12:28:09 PM | two dragon meet
one made of fire the other flesh
both mystical in their own ways
honorable by lifes designs
up holding strength
for these two, are we
challenging all, who dare seek us out
i shined my fiery light
acting as beacon, for one who dwells
in mysts of darkness and moon
for magice orbs, can only shine
a certain distance, in minds eye's
but suns rays, encomass all
so are we, two of a pair
you commanding, the moonlit skies
while i, light the way
for far off eye's
acting too forge, thru trials of fire
anyone seeking, the truth
whether inside or outward
for those, who desire
i cherish the days
when we can, finally seek
equal understanding, a balance
of us too
till then, our meeting
has only, begun
for there will be more to speak of
and post
you shimmering, silhouette
is welcome to my domain
whenever you seem fit
to speak, again
for we have many, similarities
tis true
for one made of brimstone
and the other, be magic too
all be it
some dragons, be lost in mind
others, know with time
for only the phoenix
can light the way, tis true
for lifes experiences are forged
within me too
i see and know
of things, present and past
so, knowing what will be
is a pretty easy task
for lifes cycles, go round and round
infinity, a must its true
a circle in life's experiences
carefully placed
never to return to strife
for me and you
a mechanism, if you will
too avoid, past mistakes
allowing us all, to start a new
a rebirth, to take place
for the phoenix is here
too shine, on lifes issues
for some, who'll listen
to pave the way
for others, who don't
will forevermore, turn eye's blind
never knowing, happier times
nor destiny's, waiting to be fulfilled

Posted: 2/4/2005 3:08:36 PM | | I have to say I much enjoyed Dragonn, Longte and Gerry. This knight has been badly wounded but will survive. No not physical just in heart. Most likely won't be on much but will check in now and then with a few lyrics. | |

Posted: 2/4/2005 5:52:25 PM | So Black Knight you have returned if only to drop in
A shame about your injury Dont let the **stards win
An injury to body is easy to repair
But injury to spirit can lead you to despair
Maybe we are enemies Or so the legends say
But this Dragon is here for you each and every day
Good Luck and come back soon | |

Posted: 2/5/2005 7:31:35 PM | Sir! if you have no objection id like give my own reflection. You have great way with words . wish i had half your talent. Anyway....
Dragons breathe the fire of passion, back in days of long ago.
Knights would die for ladies honer,That's the way there love they showed.
Ladies dressed in fancy dresses,trying not to show too much.
hopeing that they would be noticed. dreaming of there lovers touch.
Knights would come in all there splender,Showing ladies they were brave.
Vowing they'd be their proctectors, promiseing to be their slaves.
Women think thats so romantic,for the knights to act that way.
But they don't really understand. We still act that way today.
The way we think , and all our actions,are because of ladies fair,
Thats the reason we take chances, to make sure the ladies know we care.
It's the same as it was back in those days, We prove to ladies that were brave,
Then they put there spell upon us, And we become the ladies slaves. | |

Posted: 2/5/2005 9:01:10 PM | This sounds morbid but it is allegoric like many of my other poems. The meaning lies deeper.
From Frozen Chambers
Whistling wind on a haunting winters night
The pathway covered by the swirling white
The tree limbs breaking from the bitter cold
Walking blindly as the chill takes its hold
No choice but to challenge the blizzard's fight
Alone and confused in life's mindless chain
Soul and essence bitten by frosts pain
Thrashing wind is pushing into the back
Left for lost when drifting snow hides each track
The path abandoned to seek clear terrain
The sudden cracking sound below the feet
Quickly falling underneath the ice sheet
The lake swallows the last breath to life's war
Body and soul is frozen to the core
Captured in thick ice leaving no retreat
The screams left unheard stricken by this fate
Not able to move in cryonic state
Feeling alone as this numbness runs deep
Time seems to be passing to a dark sleep
Lest ice is broken it shall be too late
While trees on shore caught in their own demise
The lake silences all desperate cries
Falling snow buries any steps trodden
Ice imprisons left to be forgotten
The blank staring face before this life dies
Crashing through solid ice clenched fists dive
Pulling from the depths this soul not alive
Freeing from frozen chambers before lost
Attempting to save risking at all cost
Breathing deep life giving breaths that revive. | |

Posted: 2/6/2005 12:23:54 PM | Power Of Words
Freedom must first come from within our soul
By yielding to the voice that makes us whole
One soul thirsts by the mountain stream retreat
Yet anothers quenched in the desert heat
The power of words fulfills those who hear
Others left empty turning a dull ear
Some expressions impart a thousand thoughts
Soothing our dreams and untieing knots
But the words from a tongue that never rests
Shed no light and the ramblings meaningless. | |

Posted: 2/6/2005 12:25:21 PM | The one who claims the future and spreads details to entertain
Leads us astray for no one knows the future for certain
When people make plans solely on such foolish premises
Their conclusions bring forth failure, shame and utter madness
History and current habits best predict tomorrow
So concentrate on today, time’s not something to borrow
Prepare for each day but stop and enjoy the adventure
As life sets the stage to whatever comes of the future | |

Posted: 2/6/2005 8:11:29 PM | I especially like the last line "Listen not! To Others Fears, For they "Live" d*mned"
I wish i could come up with your words to convey my ideas. If there is one thing i cherish most its freedom and you spell out how not to get trapped. I worked with youth for over 10 years before working with incarcerated adults. I know what you mean about not wanting to see young people hurt. I hate abuse in whatever form. The poem called when the night falls was regarding abuse. The frozen chamber is about life in general when the soul becomes lost, numb and detached from pain til it just dies. Only the breath of life from another can revive new life. | |

Posted: 2/7/2005 2:50:46 AM | Remember this line.
A sudden screaming wind casts forth its vengeance
Shoving you through briers with no resistance
Pounding you to the ground as your clothes are torn
The moon’s back is turned the trees bristle and scorn
This poem was written regarding someone neglected and abused from family and then abused by their husband. Completely broken not feeling anyone sincerely cared. | |

Would trusting again
be insane
This earth has offered
its last lie
Numb to the world detached
from pain
The well of the tear ducts
run dry
Every angry drop
will spill
Then forward away
from dispair
Though the wounds of the soul
shall heal
The scars will forever
be there. | |

Posted: 2/7/2005 3:32:51 PM | In the morning calm under a gray sky
The bald eagle swoops with a shrieking cry
No enemy is hidden from its sight
All the land reveres its majestic might.
Life below naive to drawing unrest
The eagle senses the coming tempest
It ascends to a higher altitude
Waiting for westerly steams to intrude
Setting its wings as the storm rages near
Winds lift it above this fury of fear
As the pouring outburst casts forth its wrath
The eagle glides over its vicious path
Faced by vengeance and its destructive roar
Rising above where no others will soar
This king of air shall not cower or doubt
Patiently biding riding the storm out | |

Posted: 2/7/2005 6:29:59 PM | So mount up with wings like the eagles spread
For when the storms of life are just ahead
Scale over with the wind without restraint
Fly and not grow weary, glide and not faint. | |

Posted: 2/7/2005 7:42:32 PM | The eagles plight , lost in light , full in flight
Tonight he soars amongst those who fight
Elevating to the heavens , to show his bright feathers
He is relaxed in his element , as he roams all weathers
Windy reliance , blowing in an alliance the path of endevour
This bird left the nest , to learn himself again
Where he is , no idea my friend

Eagles nest, sitting up high
purched,on mountains ledge
tiny eaglet's, mothers pride
spreading thier wings
as though, too fly
stretching back, catching the win
in tiny feathers, that be
inate feeling, within small bodies
as though, too soar free
nudging proud, mother
fly's, first to show how
it's, done
while fledging tiny eaglet's
instinctively know, somehow
slowly fluttering, eaglet wings
climbing to nest's, edge
peering over, from great hieght's
eager to take, life's first test
first one, then two more
rapidly flapping, wings too soar
some dive, while others fall
later taking flight
a challenge, for them all
seeking the win
which lifts, them high
instincts, taking over
enabling them, to fly
later tiny eaglet's
return, back to nest
having, past thier test
for later, they will be full grown themselves
teaching their own, later
some other time

Posted: 2/10/2005 6:55:11 PM | Thank you Danny and Phoenix for posting some superb words. Kind of makes me want to be an eagle for a few hours. Of course i found this next song written by iron maiden about a man trying to fly like an eagle. It gives another perspective should we get too cocky and place faith in foolish things.
Iron Maiden - Flight Of Icarus
================================
Adrian Smith/Bruce Dickinson
As the sun breaks, above the ground,
An old man stands on the hill,
As the ground warms, to the first rays of light
A birdsong shatters the still.
His eyes are ablaze,
See the madman in his gaze.
Fly, on your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun,
On your way, like an eagle,
Fly and touch the sun.
Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old man in the eye
As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name of God my father I fly.
His eyes seem so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream,
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave.
Fly, on your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun,
On your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun. | |
