The Dragon Headed Bark Poem by Paddy J. P. Harris

When will we see the dragon headed bark,
From out the twilit land of Vesper bright,
Some surging over the dark and stormy sea
And strike upon these dying shores at night?

I know your folk have long these lands forsook,
And hope in distant kinship is unwise,
But now the hour is full for your return.
Come and calm our shrill and piercing cries.

I know you do not love our foolish ways,
I hear the lamentations that you sigh.
Return before the end of days,
I see the pity in your eyes.
