My Sonnet

                                                         Before I fall from the great big tree,
                                                         before I take my final rest below,
                                                         I march behind the mantle above me
                                                         hoping to see something new to bestow.
                                                         I've been living in the jungle alone
                                                         hoping someone will come marching again
                                                         living near a lion i've become prone.
                                                         I watch as the trees sway and the grasses wane
                                                         In the land that I call home, I am but
                                                         a lone dragon looking for my power
                                                         or, one might say, a diamond in the rut
                                                         Don't say these words to scare or cower
                                                         In fear of leaving the castle alone
                                                         From this journey I have very much grown.
