The Dragon Slayer: A Quest Through the Dark Forest

A short poem with rhythm and suspense, where a brave warrior battles a dragon in a dark forest

By Story TellerPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

She walked through the forest dense and dark

With only the moonlight as her mark

She heard a rustle in the leaves nearby

And her heart began to quicken, oh my!

She clutched her sword with all her might

Ready to defend with all her might

For in this forest, dangers lay

And she had to make it through, come what may

She walked on with bated breath

Through the winding paths of death

Until she reached the clearing wide

And saw the creature on the other side

It was a dragon of great might

Its scales gleaming in the moon's light

She knew she had to slay the beast

Or be consumed by its fiery feast

She charged ahead with sword in hand

And fought the dragon, taking a stand

Their battle was fierce and long

Until the dragon's breath grew weak and gone

She stood triumphant, the dragon slain

And walked out of the forest, without a stain

For she knew that dangers lay ahead

And she had to stay strong, or be left for dead.
