I have flown before, and I will again
Tribute to the Eragon series
Wild joy in wing wind,
knees gripping scales, I escape
astride Saphira.
* * * *
A/N: Saphira is a dragon who bonds with her rider, the young Eragon, in the book series by Christopher Paolini.

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."

I’ve read the Eragon series several times! It’s one of my favorites! Loved this haiku tribute!
I haven't read the series but you have done a lovely job with this.
Not read those books, but your words are always captivating enough without full context. Great haiku, Sonia!
Lovely!!
Not one I've read yet, but I will look it up! Nice haiku!
