The sweet notes are carried on a delicate breeze The striking notes lightly caresses the listeners ears filling their hearts with joy Nymphs and fairies dance twirling and curling between the trees Dresses made of spiders silk and feathers catch the light sparkling and glittering in the evening glow Elves stand proudly watching with piercing eyes Wizards hold stunning staffs made of ebony and silver birch Beautiful stones such as lapis lazuli's, ruby's,and sapphires rest in the wood shimmering in twilight Pendants with precise cravings on their surfaces glow with eerie power
An earsplitting shriek sounds from high in the blood red heavens He glided through the skies His strong leathery wings sliced the cool air His wicked tail cut the inky black sky in an ark of emerald He came to rest on the soft grass without a sound Jewelled irises glared at us His jade green scales bore long white scars A flickering forked tongue flashed between ragged teeth
I closed the old book and sighed The library had become increasingly dark as the twilight tried to get through the dust covered spiderwebs that clung to the icy windows I set the charcoal black book down on the dirty table and left for bed
