Evermore the dragon flies

Way up in the moonlight skies

Free of binds that bind us here

Up they soar, year after year

 

But nevermore will their wings grace

Hearts and souls within our race

For so corrupt and cruel are we

The dragons left, not coming back

 

Weep not for dragons, children, no

They all fly from to and fro

Gleeful are the dragons now

But how they hide, we know not how

 

But if one is pure in the mind

And heart and soul is very kind

Then look up into the skies

They will come, with friendly eyes

First comment shuffle (can't dance)

Well, it's a lovely poem, sounds almost like what a mother would tell her children as a bedtime rhyme. It's got a nice flow and the rhyme pattern, although simple, is not tiring. With a few minor adjustments it could be totally great reading.

I like this poem a lot. It would be excellent of you fixed the second stanza....

But nevermore will their wings grace

Hearts and souls within our race

For so corrupt and cruel are we

The dragons left, not coming back


How about...
For all compassion do we lack
The dragons left, not coming back

Or something of that nature, if you fix the rhyming problem (which kind of stops the smoothness of the poem) everything would fit so much better. Just my two cents.
