Dragon Castle

In my castle, live dragons...yes, dragons; 
after all, they are humble beings
quite suitable for keeping the place 
warm in the winter months.
Oh don’t worry, my castle is completely stone;
fourteen-foot thick walls,  house my scaly brood.
It’s the only dragon-heated castle in the world.

I have nineteen dragon chefs,
all schooled in Romania,
and holding degrees in, Dragon Cuisine.
You know, the exotic stuff like,
Yak on a spit and whale-blubber tarts;
of course, their favorite dessert is
chocolate pork pie and lots of it.
They go through about three thousand
chocolate pigs a year and
yes, it’s somewhat expensive
to breed that many but,
my dragons, 
all thirty-one of them, 
are worth it.

This went to my FAVE list for about six thousand reasons.

Haha, somehow I had a feeling you'd enjoy that.
