Mythical Creatures and Fairytales

Autumn's sigh emotion thrown across the night. Stars shiver in the laden cold with the moon's sight. The court yard had the comfort and invisibility As the elves, faeries, and minotaur physicality As they dance in the inner labyrinth among Countless others of their mythical young. No mundane would give it a second look. Yet, there is no such thing as a Golem in a nook. Bella, beautiful with pale skin and blond hair, Wide clear blue eyes and pointed ears love to share. She liked the summer best for the world grew warm And the dragons came. She wondered if the rain storm Is what brought them. Her brother Carmel, joins in The dance holding an olive branch while all the faeries spin. Dragons menacing roar with crackling fire of thunder Magical serpentine fierce in all their mystic wonder, Fluoresce scales in brilliant metallic shine livery; Benevolence manner, bold chivalry. Leap into the air, with their outstretched leathery wings Weaving between the clouds to catch the air above like kings. Elves as stars in a distant realm, together Under a blanket sky, whirling in shadows of purple heather. 12/25/2020 189 word count Fantasy With Fictional Beings Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Caren Krutsinger
