Poem
The Girl and the Dragon Come sit and listen to my tale I’ve written out in rhyme About this very special girl Well…Once upon a time I watched her as she grabbed her sword Through castle doors she strode Her steed a mighty bloodline breed Upon its back she rode The villagers, a mass each side Did cower deep of shame To hide their faces, dark engulfed Yet they were not to blame The dragon, oh a wicked beast Its flames their village feared Roaring loud till mountains fell This path of death it cleared As she, so brave with golden shield To not back down this day Her hair a flow of springtime breeze This dragon she would slay While in their homes the people wept Afraid to greet the sun Curtains closed and bolted doors As if their lives were done This monster with its piercing eyes Just laughed at their disgrace Clawing mud and slinging guilt A smile on its face She raised her sword to touch the sky So sharp this flying steel To take this creature from its reign Its fate her goal to seal Through shutters, cracks of woven walls The villagers did peer To see this girl with maple eyes Not show one ounce of fear A fire like a raging wave The dragon’s mouth did spew "You dare to face this charge of me Your days I count are few" With lightning speed she swung her blade The likes of fables wrote To slash this demon to its grave So swift across its throat The villagers came running out To watch the flowing blood And cheer when now their monstrous foe Collapsed in one loud thud She turned to face the growing crowd Her beauty filled the air Climbing down from on her horse This moment she would share "Our hero," shouted one and all "A wondrous victory You saved us, you are now our Queen A place in history" She blushed and offered this to them "No hero, I’m no queen This battle we have fought as one You all have stood with me" "This village it shall be our home No matter what will fall I am no different than you No different at all" "Together we shall face these tests And battle ever true For you are what makes this a home In everything you do" A celebration held that night With lots of fun and laughter For now they knew their world had found Its happily ever after So now you’ve heard my story long Some truth, a little bending But once again, you now have found Another happy ending
