minstrel: Heh, I know I'm probably making a pest of myself...

I know I'm probably making a pest of myself but I love my poetry and work.. 
so here are yet some more poems I've written.... I hope you do not mind.  This 
is such a quiet list....

The Dragonrider

Winds ride under the wings as the great beasts take to the air.
Their riders on their backs, defiance in their tones, they fly to destiny.
Yet one by one as the war does rage..... and their riders fall...
Each one, these lovely creatures let their wings to fold,
And plummet to death's great Hall.

(chorus)

Oh where, great dragon, do you fly, up there, 
amidst the skies so lonely?
Where is it have your brothers gone, as you search skies and sea?
Oh where, great dragon, will you go, when your brethren are found?
And a new rider alights your back, and you are destiny bound.

Amidst the fallen was a rider, a young one who'd just begun.
His dragon died amidst the battle, his heart, the pain had stung.
Amongst the mourning lay a dragon who's rider had been slain as well.
Upon that dragon's back he shouted, now it's time that our enemy fell.

(chorus)

Oh where, great dragon, do you fly, up there, 
amidst the skies so lonely?
Where is it have your brothers gone, as you search skies and sea?
Oh where, great dragon, will you go, when your brethren are found?
And a new rider alights your back, and you are destiny bound.

So the two went together... to fight their hated foe.
Each one within the heat of battle, forgot their cries of woe.
For the battle they won that day and for their dead they prayed.
The dragon and rider went together, to rest until another day.

(chorus)

Oh where, great dragon, do you fly, up there, 
amidst the skies so lonely?
Where is it have your brothers gone, as you search skies and sea?
Oh where, great dragon, will you go, when your brethren are found?
And a new rider alights your back, and you are destiny bound.
