Dragon Peter Pan and Captain Hook
Now this is a great story… But where to begin… Oh, Yes… I see…
Our Dear Sheriff of CrazyLand lives in a town called ‘Nodding-off-Ham’
Where peace reigns supreme… and beside the ‘Oh-My-God-River’…
That does keep us apart… and them, completely and perfectly serene.
Now here lies the story of that fateful day Nodding-Off-Ham came awake.
And it will definitely Never…Ever… Again… be the same… They say…
It started with Mama and Hubby off to buy a new fire proof Computer, that day.
Leaving Grandpa Troll in charge… but, alas he fell asleep and Napped away…
Now let it be noted: when those in charge nap away, ‘The Trolls’ will play.
Our Carpenter Trolls were sitting around… so very bored… when Dragon roared!
That he wanted to fly in a balloon… Where he would NEVER fall from the skies!
He wanted to be just like Peter Pan… in the sky. Yes… Fly! Fly! Flying Away!
So they built a dirigible that looked like a shark from below and a pirate ship above.
Why? You ask? Cause they’re Trolls. That’s why! And cause… I really don’t know!
And NO… They’re Not Crazy, You see… Just different… From you and from me.
The penguins were enjoying walking the plank into Acorn Lake as…
The pigeons were using the dirigible top for a meeting spot, on that fateful day…
And Dragon Peter Pan was busy steering his Pirate Ship around the lake.
But nobody noticed… that a terrible, terrible storm was coming our way…
It suddenly, hit the lake so very hard… taking the ship away in full gear…
Hanging from the loosened, snapped, anchor ropes were all of our great big trolls…
And on their faces was the expression of, yes, scared little ’lost boys’…
The storm blew the ship all the way to the next town, of dear old ‘Nodding-Off-Ham’!
Where it came out of the Thundercloud… like a true ‘Sharknado’ raining down.
Now this town had never been friendly, always hiding from Dragon, the Trolls, and all.
But they were even less happy when the Trolls, one by one, started losing their grips...
From the anchor ropes, and landed on their roofs… only to get back up and jump…
From every car and roof… determined to get back on the ropes… Yes, what a mess!
Then someone got smart… the goose that lays the golden egg was suddenly…
Sent to find Grandpa Troll… to PLEASE rescue them… with haste.
He in turn called the Sheriff of CrazyLand… who transformed into Captain Hook.
To our Brave Dragon Peter Pan! How you ask? Well come closer and hear…
For it seems our Sheriff of CrazyLand is a weekend warrior Yes… A pilot Captain!
With experience, No less! He grabbed his A10 Wart Hog Plane with its grappling hook…
Yes folks… Making him dear old Captain Hook! And yes… He flew in…
And used that HOOK to catch that wayward blimp… Towing it gently away.
Of course, as all of this was happening below… up top… Dragon Peter Pan…
Was oblivious to it all… As he continued to steer his pirate ship… all around.
But I assure you that: Captain Hook was the hero of everyone in Nodding-Off-Ham!
Yes the sleepy little burrow did now go back to sleep… But it had scared them so…
That they moved their little town… to below ground… After they did weep with relief!
And it was a Great news Day! As I bid you adieu… so ends the story of our dear…
‘Dragon Peter Pan and Captain Hook’. Honest! It’s true! … The End.
PS. I believe Dragon's Super Dooper power is in how he can make everyone smile.
And my power is in my imagination... Remember to Clap... if you believe.
