TreeClan's Poet/Writer

Quote from this Dragon: "I may be trans, but that doesn't make me, stupid, deaf, or anything bad. If I have flaws, it's up to me to fix them. Life is my choice. Stop trying to mess with me."

Henrietta is an extremely quiet, trans female dragon. She will explain things when she has to, and correct other when they call her the wrong pronouns, but otherwise, she doesn't speak much. She prefers to express herself through writing. She likes writing poems, mostly. She hopes one day that her poems will teach others to respect all LGBTQ+ dragons and all other LGBTQ+ creatures. She does most of the writing for TreeClan.
When Henrietta first met Avery, she didn't know her sexual orientation. She wasn't sure whether she was straight, pan, bi, or Lesbian. When she first spoke to Avery, she wasn't sure what falling in love felt like. However, that happened to be it. Avery helped Henrietta figure out she was a Lesbian, and when the Wildclaw finally figured out her feelings, she shyly asked Avery out by writing her a poem. Avery was shocked, but also delighted, and shyly managed to say yes. They became mates and love each other very much.

Look Again
A Poem by Henrietta

You look at my pose originally
You look at my original orientation
You think I might be male.
But look again. My friendly traveler,
At my colors and my name
Despite the traits mentioned before
It’s time to check again
Henrietta is my name
My colors are black, white, and mist
A Silhouette scroll has changed my stance
I assume you get the gist
My pronouns that I use are she/her
My name is what I chose
You may think I am mental
Have no mind left to lose
But in reality, you should know
I am the kindest dragon you could meet
A Wildclaw with the biggest heart,
I bit too big, if you ask
But I trust, and I love, just as you do
Please do not treat me bad.

Avery, will you be my mate?
The Poem Henrietta wrote to offer to be Avery's mate

I know your name is Avery
I know that you are trans
I know that you’re a lot like me
I know you helped me find who I am
I know now my name is Henrietta
I know that I am trans like you
I know that both of us are girls
And I know that I’m in love with you
I’ve found out I’m a Lesbian
I’m a bit afraid to say it
But I hope that you will listen still
And won’t decide to reject it
At first I didn’t know this feeling
At first all I knew is that I was afraid
But now I know what feelings I have
The feelings I have will be displayed.
I ask now, will you go out with me?
I’m hoping you’ll say yes
I wrote this poem just for you
I promise I tried my best
Thank you for being there for me
Thank you for being my friend

She added to the poem later, after Avery accepted the offer:

I’m glad that I could be here for you
Now that our friendship has come to an end
I’m so glad you’ve chosen to be my mate
I want to be with you forever
I trust that you’ll be here with me
We can do this, working together.
