Dragon Zodiac Zones

DRAGON ZODIAC  ZONES

If not for this contest
I would not have comb out astrology
But, I wanted to please Nette
So, I sat down, investigate my Zodiac sign.

Water dragon, that is me!
My daughter calls me “rooster cuts off in its head!”
Fits the character of the dragon:
Full of energy,  free-spirited, eccentric, dauntless
Flamboyant, colorful, passionate, stubborn, powerful.

Twenty four hours in a day, not enough for the dragon
Multi -tasking is the game
Clinic job 5 days a week, networking on a weekend
Taking care of love ones,
Poetry by night, unusual exciting phenomena.

Water dragon
I am free and uninhibited
Throw me in a cage: lock me, chain me, restrain me with all your might
But I fly with the cage, fearlessly,  magically
My  ferocious wings soar to the unknown!

The Westerners want to slay me, to kill me is futile
My intense power bounce back, my fiery mouth devastating!
The Orientals love me, my pictures hang in their abode,  my body girates  in parades
Dragon, I am
Deliverer of good fortunes!
