Fire burns the midnight sky

And all don’t notice but one eye

The young man senses something wrong

No longer hearing the Dragons’ Song

His very Tongue is leaving him

And his emerald eyes are growing dim

His dragon blood grows sluggish, true

He knows his time is coming, too

His familiar snake whispers in his ear

The meaning of the murmurs becomes clear

The young man must begin to leave

And be to the mountains by this eve

Midsummer’s night has arrived at last

His dragon side finishing a magic fast

The time has come to learn to shift

To build a bridge across this rift

The Guardian dragon challenges first

Questioning on his knowledge hunger thirst

The young man replies he hungers all ways

Receiving only touch of well earned praise

The Seeker than raises her worried thought

Curious to see how much magic’s sought

He returns a comment to the wise

Magic with humans always dies

The Organizer brings the initiation to a close

The final question thought, brought and arose

Why does the dragon blood call to you?

Answer- human is only outside; the dragon is true

The Organizer gives a very short nod

And brought forth is a blue crystallized pod

The young man questions, curious and all

Get into the pod, comes the return call

He closes himself off from the world

His mind and wings have been closed and furled

He now releases his dragon side

And throws himself to the dragon tide

Fire burns the midnight sky

The dragons give a collective sigh

The young man is now a young dragon

And flies golden-red like the rising sun

He returns back to the ground

And changes back without a sound

Time to return back to his life

And not give anyone too much strife

Dragon blood come to terms with man

He now belongs to the dragon clan

He is now only human here

That is, until the new next year.
