HEART OF A DRAGON

Shifting his feet, slowly his head turns
Gazing over the lands below
As the cool rain falls
Beats the heart of a dragon

Once in flight, high above the clouds
Feeling the warm sun, on his body
He soars…free at last
Beats the heart of a dragon

Wind beneath his wings
The smell of the sweet earth
Fills his lungs, with each breath
Beats the heart of a dragon

He has no treasures to keep
And his loyalty is to his own kind
And in all of us
Beats the heart of a dragon
