Dragons in the night
that haunt our dreams,
but in reality we know
there is nothing there.
Our nightmares is our imagination
playing tricks on our mind,
but when we awake
we find nothing there.
We’re told tales when we were young
that if we did not behave
the bogey man or such
would come and claim us,
but they were only stories.
Yet we believed them to be true
and remembered them as we grew
as dragons in the night.

Ours is to resist those armsand the allure they might bring.To heed to our desiresmay hold a heavy price to pay.Best we ignore temptationand move well out of its way.5 July 2014
