The Dance of the Pink Dragon

Biyu the Pink Dragon wise, dragon old, the Dragon who did not hoard or covet glittering jewels or gleaming gold.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who did not hide and sleep

in some great, dark, hidden mountain cave. The Pink Dragon who left China to help and save. Biyu the Pink Dragon who did not revel in death, destruction, and Hellfire,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who did not see herself as a being better or higher. Biyu the Pink Dragon who long stood with vikings , the last of the brave and the good,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who resisted that great Evil

and against tempting Darkness withstood.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who faced the terrible ice dragon

who sought to corrupt and destroy all life,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who knew him all too well

though many years of war and strife.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who beheld the satanic might

of the ice dragon without fear,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who spoke only four words to him,

"Your reign ends here!"

Biyu the Pink Dragon who stared, undaunted, unfazed

into the ice dragon's single, raging, hating eye,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who did not flinch when the Pulao Long screamed back:

"I will make your blood reign from the sky!"

Biyu the Pink Dragon who held the fate of world

in her long, lethal claws,

through gaping, flaming jaws.

was like the loudest of all thunder,

tore their twisted minds asunder.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who laughed at Suanni long ,

whose wrath then cloaked the sun,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who filled vikings with her courage

when they all wanted to run.

Biyu the Pink Dragon whose glden fire drove back

the Blackness of the Night, Pulao Long

Biyu the Pink Dragon who battled on, wounded,

yet refusing to rest or to turn from the fight.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who was the first to charge

and the last to retreat,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who showed the enemy

the true meaning of defeat.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who rose like a godess on great wings

to fight the Pulao Long to the death,

Biyu the Pink Dragon whose blood ran free when pierced through with the poisoned talons of the the ice dragon ,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who crushed him in a deadly embrace

as he took that final, fatal blow.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who continued to fight,

her Spirit still surging and burning within,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who was so pure and powerful,

Death was afraid to step forward and claim her .

Biyu the Pink Dragon who ascended with ice dragon to the heights where only the stars and suns dwell.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who showed him the beautiful norseland

he sought to turn into a godless hell.

Biyu the Pink Dragon who then drove her claws into and tore out his vile, malignant spirit,

Biyu the Pink Dragon who cried, "You began it, I stopped it,

and now let the Jade emperor Himself finish it!"

Pulao long who finally fell pierced from the sky

like a huge burning star, Pulao long whose thundering death-cry was heard by all near and far.

Biyu flew with the Pulao long's empty body

clutched tight in her steel grasp,

Biyu who won the greatest victory

with her final, pain-filled gasp.

Biyu whose great Soul now forever flies

through Heaven's endless golden skies,

Biyu who lit up dark, dreary viking world

with a bright light that never dies.

The pink dragon who loved vikings so much,

the ultimate gift she did willingly give,

The Dragon who gave her one Life

so vikings could continue to thrive and live.

The pink dragon who filled their hard hearts

with her wisdom, kindness and love,

The pink dragon who was so powerful and strong

yet humble to the Jade emperor above.

The pink dragon who befriended the vikings ,

dragon whose great words and deeds

will be cherished and remembered forever.

The pink dragon fierce yet wise, dragon strong yet old,

for your tale has been, and always will be, told.

The pink dragon, always will the be

The Guardian of The Vikings .
