Treoris

It is true that Dream was her chosen name
Toned of body, small of frame
Stately dragon with head held high
In grace and power she rides the sky.
Is she black, is she blue
is she red or golden hue?
Turn her about and you will see
Rainbow scales are hers incredibly
Iridescent flashes and armored wings
Princess of dragons the herald sings
Beware her wrath, all who oppose her
For her fires shall burn forever.
Such is the flame within her bright.
Wound her not, or else take flight.
But true beauty within her lies,
A heart of silver to match her eyes.
Welcome her if she comes to you
And you will find faithfulness true.
Small for a dragon, though she may be,
Her inner being is as vast as the salty sea.
Hold onto the Dream, hope that she stays
And awaken the dawn of glorious days.

A.O.T.S.P.

No one saw it coming.
Children played with them.
Companies used them to cushion everything in shipments.
So very useful.
So entertaining.
Lumpy, white, squishy, small.
Harmless little things.
The aliens lay in waiting,
right in plain sight.
Then it happened.
They spread, flying, leaping, catching the wind.
Across the highway, in the grass, on your car.
They're everywhere!
And they're not biodegradable!
Twilight zone has come again.
Run and hide.
No one's going to pick them up.
They're everywhere.
We're all going to die.
Well, if you eat them.
Poor little aliens.
Here to take over the world.
And their threat is the deer and your pet dog.

You're Worth Waiting For

Stone by stone.
Heartache by heartache.
Pulling myself inside.
Not introvert, retrovert.
Refusing to show who I am.
Wearing a mask.
No more tears, no more pain, I said.
So I grew the walls of thorns,
Cursed myself with the hundred year sleep,
Lay on the bed in the highest tower.
I will never come down, I said.
What is this, a light at my window,
Shining from far below.
I see his face, I know his name.
Holding out a heart of light.
Calling to me, come down.
I say it will take time,
for me to take the stairs.
It will take time,
for you to rip down the thorns.
It will take time,
for me to find the key.
You will grow tired of waiting.
I should have warned you.
But he simply smiled and said,
You're worth waiting for.
