Where did they come from?
Where did they go?
Questions to which answers,
No one seems to know.

Beautiful and gentle,
As much as a flower.
They soon disappeared,
Due to man's lust for power.

Only those now
As rare as sages.
Can truely find a dragon
In these modern ages.

Once these creatures
Where the protectors of us all.
Sheltering great civilizations
Until they disappeared, leaving them to fall.

Everyone I know
Is a dragon you see.
I look out for you,
You look out for me.

Dragons will be with us
Through the reaches of time.
In fact there's one sitting here,
Teaching me this rhyme.

this is pretty good stuff!

"Once these creatures

The last line in this stanza was too long tho - it kinda ruined the flow.

"Everyone I know
Is a dragon you see.
I look out for you,
You look out for me."

I really like this stanza coz i think, when u hear someone calling other people drangons they usually mean it as an insult. good change!

I'm glad that you liked it. :)
You know I thought the same thing about that when I wrote it. about the flow that is.
For some reason I couldn't get it the way I wanted so that was the end result.
I know I should be ashamed :ashamed: I'll do better next :D

Education is what remains,
After what is learned,
Has been forgotten.
:iconsilent-screamer:
oh, no.... u should never be ashamed of a poem like this!
Even if it doesn't flow exactly right, it's still pretty awsome!
No one's (and nothing's) perfect right?

Nice, gentle rhyming, light poetry. I also love dragons.
The middle stanza about great civilisations is way to long and dominating however. Maybe you can split it into two smaller ones.
