Hissing Dragon

Hissing heartshaped Dragon draped route Escaped ship slips Camouflaged trap Seaward map shown Sails slap in breeze Portal to sea Songs of glee flow From freedom's voice
Inspired by Debbie's contest..

Dear Sara, You brought the dragon to life in this write. Dragons are symbolic of many things, especially for Asians, but I always think of them the way you describe -- "camouflaged traps" for sailing ships. Wonderful use of imagery, my friend. How are you feeling? I miss hearing from you and have been praying for your health. Love, carolyn
