Dragon Slayer by Terry Kimbrell With eyes fixed in gallant stare; My presence with sword I announce. Dragon's breath flickers a deadly glare; The earth rumbles 'neath its sudden pounce. Flame meets shield, iron glows red; The air is heavy with sulfurous heat. To long has the beast filled hearts with dread; For my honor the serpent must fall in defeat. A razor edge finds flesh then bone; From a headless body fire and blood rains. No more this demon through our land will roam; With dragon's blood may my blade always be stained. As I step from dark lair to morning light; The sun is but a temporary friend. Somewhere another vile creature takes flight; With last dragon's breath, or mine, the quest will end.
