Dragon and Faerie

The dainty faerie on tip-toe
And held gently in the dragon's
Clawed and gnarled hands, 
Poses dainty nose to craggy nose,
With mystic eye to golden eye 
And sharply demands 
Why he chose to doze
And let the wicked socerous
Befoul the forest lands.

Moral of the Story: Those who snooze lose!

Congratulations!! I love how you turned this into a lesson or moral! I, or any teacher, could use this as a way to teach 'morals and themes' from just an illustration. Brilliant! -Meghan
