Dragons Amongust Us

If you are very careful and quiet, you might be able to get a peek at my dragons. They can be shy, but very playful...

To the Chinese, the dragon represented the element of air and the characteristic of wisdom. The dragon also figures in the mythology of various oriental countries, notably Japan and China. It is defined in the Taoist religion and was the national emblem of the Chinese empire. Among the Chinese people, the dragon is traditionally reguarded as a symbol of good fortune.

Little flame mouths, cool your tongues.

Dream time starts, my furnace-lungs.

Rest your wings now, little flappers,

cave mouth calls to dragon nappers.

Night is coming, back your fire.

Time for dragons to retire.

Hiss. Hush. Sleep.
