dragon in the sky

the sky is clear  
a smile without sounds
birds are pushed into the background
by a presence unseen
tiny eyes hide away  
in nests and under rose bushes  
disguising themselves  
inbetween the tree's leaves
curious but fearfully peeking  
wandering on the forthcoming form  
preparing to fly into the anxious sky  
a fiery orange line like a leather belt of strength stands
flame of fire stirs the birds once sheltered wings
and they are perplexed by the shining heat above the tree's
the line of orange and gold  
never seen by a birds eye before
fear subsides and curiosity takes over
they place their little legs on the green grass
brave little birds  
reality is , there is nothing to fear
confident hovering protection
warmth and then a gust of wind
the sky wanders
what is this mighty being  
shaking up all of my nerves
confusing all of my blue skin
make yourself visible
you powerful ghost of strength  
a purple wing reveals itself  
turning into two  
a pair of beautiful butterfly wings
purple patterns made from a sturdy leather
joined by a mystical body
as strong and sturdy as lead
the head of a wondrous friendly beast
appears last of all
the little birds return to shelter
dumbfounded by a real dragon in the sky
