The Dragon in the Moon
Have you ever wondered who lives in the moon?Perhaps you should ask the fair lady who loves him so.
As the story goes the dragon fell in love with his lady fair and wanted to feel her embrace forever,but love was fleeting, and others wanted her company keeping.
In desperation, the dragon swept his fair lady away.
Up into the moon they lived for a month and a day.
But his lady fair grew weak and frey ,and she had to return home, or she would face sudden death, and the dragon feared he would be alone.
So they made love once or twice that evening, and he gently flew her home on the the wings of silver and gold,
As the story is told, the dragon grew lonely and asked the sun to watch over his lady fair. He made a promise to her that the dragon in the moon would always be there.
He longed to be with his love and dared not go back on his promise, so he made a bargain at the first sign of an eclipse he would be in her arms as promised.
That's when I awoke to find him there beside me, body glistening with moonbeams abroad.
And we made love, for time was very short. Dawn was now approaching, and the angel tapped at the window to show me the way home.
I arrived home with tears on my cheek, and every night I stare at the moon and I can hear him speak,
Do not be afraid, I will be with you soon...
I love you.
