Dragons, Dragonflies and Hufflewinks

While Skye danced free among daisies and daffodils, cloaked in mink
Unwary daydreams of a princess in exuberance singing and dawdling
Damsel snatched in two hufflewinks and one rinkydink tiddlywink

The wicked sorceress on her fiercest dragon, captured Skye in a wink
In her darkened heart, how long she had dastardly been conniving
While Skye danced free among daisies and daffodils, cloaked in mink

Her militia of dragons, dragonflies and damselflies charging all in sync
There was no stonewalling the blackness of her conspiracy’s omening
Damsel snatched in two hufflewinks and one rinkydink tiddlywink

Into dragons’ deafening roar, shining knights’ bravery never to shrink
The king sent his valiant men to the rescue, daring courage unwavering
While Skye danced free among daisies and daffodils, cloaked in mink

The princess imprisoned in a godforsaken dungeon beyond the brink
Life far from wonderful in the land with no more laughter bellowing
Damsel snatched in two hufflewinks and one rinkydink tiddlywink

The whole kingdom in turmoil unable to rest, of sweet Skye they'd think
Life far from wonderful in the land with no more laughter bellowing
While Skye danced free among daisies and daffodils, cloaked in mink
Damsel snatched in two hufflewinks and one rinkydink tiddlywink
