Moon Dragons

Outside these walls that trap me deep inside Freedom was amiss, time lofts in a ride I seek the highest heights, up and beyond Before me is the moon, sending its charm I explore this intriguing moon I see Simple and with a great solid beauty Dragons take me to the upper limits I must ride with them, I’ll not ever quit The sky is my ruby isle, great delight Harping over what was beside our sight The moon was blue, which allured us to fly Cool as the midnight winter air so dry I left the walls of boredom to the sky Escaped with the dragons not knowing why Russell Sivey

My teeth still hurt, but not as bad as it was a few days ago! Tomorrow will get here eventually, then I'll get relief, thank goodness!
