As one

As One
-------

Shadows slip over the land in silent waves
amidst a darkening world.
Beneath stars turning on one by one,
like black silver he moves across the skies.
Earth turns beneath his flight.
Down below, a Child of the Earth waits,
reaching through the great unseen,
anchoring her soul to his.
Glittering stars nestle into the bed of night,
over the shadowed form of a dragon's
never-ending soar into the heavens, Child of Earth on his back.
Jewels shine in his eyes, stars which kept him company
even as he searched the world for her. . .
never turning back. . .
Now they fly as one.
