Meng Chiang-nu And The Dragon by Jyotsna Lal - HTML preview

Have you watched the skies dance with light and heard the thunder more like a roar .On a moonlit night when a million stars twinkle and bow while like waves, the clouds boom and crash, That one may give heed to dragon lore. Many may never accept the fact of Dragons soaring among the clouds. No one witnessed their winged flight or the forked tongues and fiery lash Nor seen them from here on the ground, can imagine their great might So next time you’re touched by the purple pink sky and watch the clouds move on the wind because dragons do fly They’re just not seen by the eyes of men. Zise gechong Long soared high from his mountain plateau; surveyed his kingdom, he left shadows in his wake as dark as he, And a dragons' lands his own .None dared defy the terrifyingly beautiful master. But what's this?

Down below him, another danced, Screaming out his challenge, talons ready, and he stopped, and he died. For the other had looked at him with eyes that pierced his heart, and for the first time in his life he knew he'd met his equal.

Fen Xiad Long      observed him, mischievous eyes sparkling, Languidly, she stretched and flexed her wings. "you are mine, Jian Ho,"

She said with knowing grace. "I am Meng Chiang-nu.”

Zise gechong Long regarded her and tossed his head, regally, defiantly, For while he knew she was his mistress, Her heart was also his.

Their laughter blends, old hurts and wounds mend, without each other they could never live and sing ‘Our hearts and souls to the other we give. Never shall our love waver or fade, from the same mold we were made. We are the future, present and past, Our love will always last. We are flying high my love, dragons in form high above, Deep in my heart I know it's true, The only dragon for Zise gechong Long is Fen Xiad Long’’
