Draggin' Dragon Drag on

By rvh1956

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

So tired, so alone, not much left to carry on. Draggin' dragon drag on. Over the hill, a restful meadow, full of warming sun. Draggin' dragon drag on. Soaking up the rays, letting the tension drift away, slipping away into the land of dreams. Draggin' dragon drag on. The dream comes again, surrounded by caring loving ones, eyes begin to mist. Dragggin' dragon drag on. The dragon awakes, alarmed at first, but then, sees it wasn't a dream at all. I would like to add my own comment in the body of this. I feel so deeply that we are meant to be happy here on this earth. What I have learned, experienced and intuited have led me to believe that if we can 'bend the lens' of our perception we begin to see that we can be and do all the things needed to ensure our happiness. Sometimes it means just accepting that certain things are not under our control and just accepting they are part of life and even though as we initially experience them they make us feel bad, they are part of life. Until we learn to 'embrace' life, the good times and the bad and the times in between that seem to bore us 'interminably', we aren't allowing ourselves to be happy in any given moment. I hope that this has helped even one of those that have read this. To quote a line from someplace else, 'In helping others, I help myself'. May you find serenity within, a gentle path through life, and the courage to face life and make the right decisions in any given moment.
