Poem
Mommy had a cold, now Dragon has it too. Oh woe is me! Woe to you, too! Fire’s dribbling, fluidly from his eyes, as lava flows, in a nasty watery goo. Coughs shoot in fireballs, as he coughs, with a non-tiring, and bitter croup. Even his little bum, found itself, with the same un-erring problem, it’s true. OH… ME… OH… MY… WHATEVER ARE WE TO DO!!!! The house has finally imploded, so we have him floating on our big lake. Hoping to bring his fever down, the water’s boiling, heavily in it’s wake. So we’re now hosing water, from the shore, to cover him, in a soothing flow. But now, the lava’s building an island of floating fire, in a bright red glow!! OH… ME… OH… MY… WHATEVER ARE WE TO DO!!!! But Mommy won’t be stopped from comforting her widdle, bitty Dragon Man. So I rowed out sitting in an ice filled boat, as we had a brilliant, big, game plan! I waas putting ice on his forehead, as others are trying to row out more, to me. But the ice was instantly catching fire as it hit his forehead. Oh NO!! Woe is me! OH… ME… OH… MY… WHATEVER ARE WE TO DO!!!! Surprisingly! Singing to him, has put him soundly, and amazingly fast, to sleep. So now I called the Vet, to save my widdle Dragon Man, as I soundly weeped! But much to my surprise, Grandpa Troll and the Vet steadfastly, did totally agree. Dragon’s in no trouble, for you see, fire is a kinda, Very Normal, Dragon Thing! OH… ME… OH… MY… WHATEVER ARE WE TO DO!!!! WHAT! You’re kidding! I said in Alarm! He’ll be fine? So just let him sleep? But NOW he’s blowing fiery bubbles that are floating off high, into the air! And every time he hiccups, they’re getting bigger! Do what? What did you say? Get a gun!! OH, to shoot them from the air? And he should be fine by morning? Honestly, a Momma’s job is never done, as the fever did finally pass at dawn. As we exhaustedly, all took Dragon home. Well, to what was left, of it, that is. But Momma had her widdle baby Dragon back, and that was ALL we did want!! My prayers were finally answered! So Dear God! THANK YOU!! and AMEN! Written by Carol Eastman 4-8-2016
