Night.
Blacker than black,
Darker than dark.
Black as coal,
Dark as the ocean’s bottom.

Dragons.
Elegant and graceful.
Large and sleek.
Flying through the sky
In games of talent.

Knights.
Strong and skilled.
Fierce and hard.
They think their duty
Is to wipe out dragons.

Dragon’s Night.
Dragons hide from the knights.
People see them no more.
But in the black, dark night,
They wheel through the sky.

The author's comments:
In my creative writing class, we had to come up with a series of words where the last letter of one word was the same as the first letter of the next, then find inspiration for peotry from them. The only one of interest I could find was "Dragon Night."
