Prelude to a Myth - Dragon Wars

Far below Enchanted Mountain Peaks
In a Cavern deep below the Earth
Golnar sits and waits on his Crystal throne
He waits upon a Pure but simple Scribe
One he can overpower or maybe Bribe
To tell the Tales that must be Told
Before the Dragon Age has passed
of Long Ago and far Away

Dragon Wars

So far Beyond these Misty Hills
Where Dragon’s sleep,their secrets Keep
Until they are Called to Rise again
When scent of Man is on the Wind
And Hackles rise upon their crests
A Shimmer of Light runs down Glowing scales
Once again the Hot,Hot Breath
Flame that Sears the straw thatched Hut
And the Villager who can but Stand and Stare
Trembling at the Mighty Dragon’s Cry

So Dragons sleep, Dragons dream
The Dreams of Long ago
And wait for the Call to Dragon Wars
So it was in another Time,another Age
When Dragons flew across the Dark night Sky
A Time when Elf and Dwarf and Goblin too
Ran and Hid away when the Dragons Flew
Black,Red,Green and White,and the Fearful Blue

Dragons one,and Dragons all,Some short
Some tall,some Big,some small
Guarding their Golden Horde
Armour,Sword,Staff and Crown
so much Treasure Strewn across the ground
And there Dragon sleeps upon His Horde
He dreams the Dreams of the Dragon Wars

Blood Red the grass as all around
Men,Elf,and dwarf lay Dying
The Mighty Dragons rule the field
Still Squire and Knight and Solders all
Standing Tall they hear the Call
to Battle
As red mists clear and take they Heed
For there sits Pure White Paladin upon his Steed
Looking for Dragons on which his Sword can Feed

But Dragons,Dragons gather all
Across the Land they form a Mighty Wall
Roar of Dragons voice above Trumpets blare
With Blood and Gore across the Field
As Man prepares to make a Stand
Both Man and Dragon will die here on this Day
And some will survive to Crawl away
To fight these Dragon Wars another Day

The pink Blood Haze lifts from our Eyes
And upon Hill pure White Paladin
Dying on the Blood soaked Earth
Above him Towers the Mighty Blue
Silver Lance Deep in Mighty Dragons Heart
Dragon weeps and so does Man
Long ago Before Time began

    Sigh, I dream of Dragon dreams
    And long to see the Silver Keep.
    Alas, here where steel and oil rule
    Twill only ever be in my sleep.
