This image came about based on a real sighting I had of a mother bear and her two cubs climbing a juniper in the Sierras near my home.
High up on Bear Hill, amongst the talus and scree,
Mom, brother, and sister climb the great juniper tree.
The berries are delicious.
The climbing becomes a game.
Here in the mountains, life is far from tame.

"...The goat snorted and butted them with his horns and Tatterhood smacked the trolls with her magic wooden spoon until they gave up and let her escape."
"Tatterhood" is a norse fairy tale that was a favorite of mine growing up. Its heroine is a scrappy rebel who rides a goat, wears a tattered cloak, and rescues her bewitched sister's head from the clutches of a pack of trolls.

For me, dragons are linked with the landscape of Southern China where I grew up. The undulating mountains are often compared to their scaly shapes.
