slumbering dragons

091

Exhausted, the dragon collapsed upon the beach. Tides came and went, and the years grew into centuries as he slumbered. The cracks between his scales filled with wind-blown soil and trees began to grow. He woke up on the last full moon, yawned, and looked around a little before falling back to sleep. I can’t help but think he hit a dragony snooze button and soon he’ll be awake for good.
