Dragon

The dragon
The dragon's way is the way of the water.
There must be water for life to be,
and it can flow - wherever.
And water, being true to being water,
Is simply true.
Dragons, like water,
need to accept where they find themselves;
and that may often be where water goes -
to the lowest places, and that is right.
Like a lake,
The heart must be calm and quiet
having great depth beneath it.
The dragon rules with compassion,
and his word needs to be trusted.
The dragon needs to know, like water,
how to flow around the blocks
and how to find the way through without violence.
Like water, the dragon will wait
for the moment to ripen and be right:
Water, you know, never fights-
it flows around.
