СКАЧАТЬ because they’re human

      It’s because of things they’ve seen humans do.

      Humans show no respect for ancient trees

      Rare flowers, ferns, nor ancient rock

      They dam up all free rivers

      Ancient fairy streams they block.

      They try to chop down every tree

      And dig up all the land

      They crave every fish in every lake

      And they soil the ocean’s sand.

      They turn ancient forests into tree farms

      Their nets choke the rivers life

      They are the sworn enemies of diversity

      Human greed is the source of strife.

      When humans are done the land is always

      Unlike it ever was before

      A lifeless land devoid of trees

      No safe home for bear nor boar.

      No more ancient songs will flow from a fairy stream

      No bright fish swim a deep blue lake

      It’s just the way they are these human kind

      They’ve only learned to grasp and take.

      For humans are just a fledgling race

      Not as ancient as dwarves and elves

      Not yet wise enough to consider others

      As important as themselves.

      Nyber knows well enough the ways of old

      He knows some Dragonspeak

      One day the humans will all grow up

      And the old ways they will seek.

      They will hear the ancient music from the planets

      And singing from all the stars

      They’ll feel the sacred energy from their Mother Earth

      And learn the old tales of Mars.

      They’ll hear the tones within the tones

      Of fiery sunset, sand, and sea

      They will learn the old ways of water and fire

      And know sacred life dwells in every tree.

      They will love walking much more softly

      Thus not disturbing gentle Gnomes

      They will better learn to build their houses

      And not wreck forest homes.

      They will learn to see the Dragons

      Speak to Bugbears, Dwarves, and Elves

      They’ll ride swift and free on wild griffin back

      And really enjoy themselves.

      Then all ancient forests will be finally free

      And never need to be patrolled

      Then new time will turn full circle

      And cycle back to a time of old.

      But for now the young wizard, Nyber Khan

      Looks down from his lofty perch

      With loving self-protection

      On an ancient forest of pine and birch.

      Upon ebon battlements of stone and light

      Alone he darkly stands

      Wearing robes of much older powers

      He surveys his armored bands.

      His dark blue sword of elven steel

      Shimmers straight and true

      A Runic Bow spans his broad, strong back

      A quiver of seeking arrows too.

      Hesper The Elven Princess. (Poem two.)

      Hesper is a wild turquoise dragon

      She loves to soar the deep blue sky

      And Nyber Khan the brash young wizard

      Just loves to watch her fly.

      She has diamond scales beyond royal blue

      She sprays a wicked blue-white flame

      Hesper has taught Nyber some dragon-speak

      So Nyber can speak her true name.

      She is as fast as light and dragon links

      With bold Nyber while in flight

      Barely larger than a giant eagle

      She’s full scale in any fight.

      Her almond eyes are the deepest scarlet

      Her pupils catlike and forest green

      Her Dragonsight penetrates any darkness

      And thus see’s things almost never seen.

      She dearly loves to tease wild griffins

      As she dive-bombs the goblin troops

      Nyber’s Troops who patrol the land

      In swift, concentric, tough loops.

      It’s all just good, clean, dragon sport

      Her team is never close to being harmed

      The wild griffins and generals ignore her

      But the goblins get a little alarmed.

      Nyber smiles and Hesper just knows

      Thus perfect dragon link gets done

      Earthbound Nyber gets quite a ride

      As sweet Hesper has her fun.

      For he then see’s all a dragon sees

      As wild Hesper soars the sky

      In colors he’s never seen before

      As forest and field fly by.

      Hesper loves to link up at night

      And СКАЧАТЬ
