The Dragon's Nest

I finally decided what to post on this thing. Mainly poetry or other things I've written. Although I might add random things I like just for fun. I would greatly appreciate feedback from my readers as it helps me to improve myself as a writer. Enjoy.

Sweet Molly Foreword

This is not only my most recent work, but my first attempt at something scary. I don't know if I set the mood, but I certainly tried.

Sweet Molly

Late in the night; When the house is sleeping She hears the monster Start its creeping. Through the window And up the stairs Into her room It waits and glares. Beneath the covers Frozen still. If it cannot see It cannot kill. Her parents, they Do not believe her. They console her. They deceive her. There is no monster, Go to bed. That is what They’ve always said. From the darkness Comes a whisper. Why are you hiding Little Sister? Why is your body Filled with fright? Come out and play; I will not bite. But she hides And does not listen. She’s seen his fangs, And how they glisten. Only when The darkness dies, And the sun Begins to rise Does she emerge In open space. Her heart returns To a normal pace. She runs to her parents Both sleeping, still. They don’t believe her. They never will. The mother’s eyes They fill with tears. “Your brother has Been dead for years.” “Please believe me just this once. I can’t take this. It’s just too much.” The father sees Her tears and sighs. “We’ll stay one night. But no more lies.” The sun goes down. The house grows still. The prodigal son Returns to kill. Beneath the blanket She hears the screams. Her parents’ voices. To haunt her dreams. Now in the dark She cries and hides, From two more Glaring pairs of eyes.

Elemental Inquiries

Said Fire to Ice It must be nice To be the Earth or Sea. The creatures that live All over them Cannot exist in me.

  Said Ice to Fire Why do you desire Something so inane? If I had those creatures To scar up my features I think it would drive me insane.

  Said Fire to Water Oh Ice’s daughter How do they ever survive? The one’s I touch Turn to ash and dust. Yet the ones inside you thrive.

  Said Water to Fire Though you have my ire I will tell you that which I do. I save from the Air Those who perish there, But that is no path for you.

  Said Fire to Earth How can you give birth To creatures so filled with joy? It’s such a cruel fate For I’ve tried to create, But all I can do is destroy.

  Said Earth to Fire I am the sire Of every conceivable race. I feed and care For the ones that I bear, And you shall not take my place.

  Then Fire despaired Till he spoke to the Air And told him of his plight. And Air did listen to Fire’s admission Then thought on it all through the night.

  Said Air to Fire Those others are liars, Though you can bring down a nation. For each city that passes Two shall rise from the ashes, Flames are harbingers of creation.
