James Fraser Poet Rhyme

Winged Serpents of Fire - Act 1

The day finally came
For when we were young we read
Winged serpents of fire
To our planet earth brought dread

It was on a winters night
When i was awoken in my sleep
No animal could make that roar
As my skin started to creep

I looked towards my window
A shadow sped past so fast
Next there was an orange glow
Followed by, blast after blast

Fireballs rained down
Destroying everything it hit
For from their mouths they spewed
Like napalm, fire spit

For upon the dragons rode
Scant maiden warriors
For now my eyes believed
These winged serpent terriers

For with them came hooded beings
Who held up lights of blue
Servants to these dragons
The ones that they lured to you

When i look to the darkened skies
Every so often there are balls of flames
These winged serpents of fire
Are bringing down our planes

Through the smoke i view the horizon
Above the mountains, all i see is an orange glow
You can hear their wings in the shadows
Whilst they gruesomely bestow

I can hear my father and mother
Crying in their room
My mother in frantic screams
Declaring this is our tomb

No sooner had they arrived
They disappeared into the black
These winged serpents of fire
No doubt they will soon be back
