The Dragon Prows

The winter sea ice was thick, deeply cold and moved slow
Only a tidal wave or a whale swimming through the floe
Forge a path through to open water from a frozen surface
But our ships are dragons, powerful, swift, with purpose
Storied beasts and leviathans of the seas cannot stop them
For we own the surface, from the depths to each horizon
Our way is truth, we fear no other men, only ocean's cold
Lands for our people, fulfill our prophecies once foretold
