Tetons

 The tales of long ago

from when there was magic upon the earth

come this way with dragon breath

laying thick fog upon the byways 

to obscure the path

mermaid’s pearls on silver strings 

lay beneath the reflections on the sea

treasure meant for those few who meet the challenge laid out 

in their moment of conception 

here you see

the spine of the dragon itself

sleeping these past centuries 

until some day its roar will awaken the 

guardians 

of the chalice of being
