"What do you mean, you aren't good enough?" asked the bewilldered Ticilt. "You said I was messy and dirty and not very cute at all," she wailed, somewhat untruthfully. "Opps. Well, I'm sorry and I didn't mean it. I do think you are cute, not very dirty, and you eat lady bugs like they are the best thing in the world. I could watch you every morning. I like you very much." "You do? This is the best news ever! Um, want to come share some lady bugs with me? You'll see why I like them so much!" And that was the beginning of a very beautiful friendship.

Frozen
Her soul hot as fire,
Dreams for love's true desire.
Her heart cold as Ice,
Holds her in it's chilling vice.
The tears that are shed for lovers long dead,
Fill the frosted air with memories unsaid.
A body once warmed by the heat of love,
Coldly now curses the heavens above.
The sound of snow is all that is heard,
As frozen lips utter not but a word.

“Aishteru”

If I were to write you a letter, Love, how easy it would be.

To speak of dark cool nights, your warmth embracing me.

Oh, how you make my wingtips blush when you look deep into my eyes.

My heart flutters like a dove, your clawed paw holding mine.

My soul's aflame with your undying light

I'll hold you dear with all my might

Our night is here for us to share

So lets be free with naught a care

My colors are yours, an undying flare

Ill lay them bare with no mortal care

I'm yours now, forever and till forever more

Till day light ends and the sunshine reaches that golden shore

Even as the flowers fade, my love will still be true.

Because I give my heart, My Sweet, only to you.

So, Aishteru, my Love.

Good night.

Sweet dreams.

A Furtive Love

The sun sets and Dusk arrives
By cover of her shadows, lovers meet
Whispers, kisses, promises exchanged
Quickly, quietly, for soon does she retreat

Though too shy to greet her love
An ethereal companion remains behind
Her message is a whisper on the wind
But Dawn smiles and murmurs

"I love you too"

A tendril of mist here and there around the edges of his frame, but it was him. She took another look at the mist around her and began to see faces. Faces of other dragons. She realized this was not a place to fear. The mist in the mornings were those lost who wanted to be found again. The dragons of the Sunbeam Ruins still keep a distance from the Hewn City, but there is a new rumor to go with the city: Follow the Noggle and you will find what once was lost. True love has no boundaries. True love can never be lost. [/center]

Love Found Again

The Sunbeam Ruins are known for their old architecture and the secrets that they keep. Many dragons have spent days and years trying to pry inside and see what is there. Just as one question is answered, another is asked. It can get quite chaotic when a new dragon shows up and asks questions already answered, but they are glad to teach the newcomers. Sometimes revisiting a question leads to more understanding. The Lightweaver is so proud of her little acolytes.

There is one question that none have dared to answer though. What is in the Hewn City? What is it? Darkness covers it and even the light from the Lightweaver can not shine its way in. In the mornings, mist will roll out, its tendrils reaching for something. No one is brave enough to venture close to find out. Some say whispers can be heard, but that is just rumor since no one has tried to prove it.

Never Let You Go

He tips his hat,
He bows his head.
He gives a wink,
Your heart stops dead.

Full of manners,
Always welcoming you in.
You know he's not a player,
For it is you and you alone he wants to win.

Roses today,
Violets tomorrow.
Each day a surprise,
Never is there any sorrow.

Whether you say stay,
Whether you say go.
Fully enraptured,
His heart will never let you go.
