Recycled Dragons
Recycled Dragons
Today I built a castle
with an empty cardboard box.
I built a moat around it
with books and building blocks.
Then I crawled inside and waited
for a dragon to appear
‘cause I’m a knight in shining armor!
There is nothing that I fear!
With a little imagination
and a pencil as my aide
I will slay the mighty dragon
and I will not be afraid!
All at once a ferocious dragon
by the name of “This Side Up”
blew red, hot flames right at me,
nearly burned my castle up!
So I grabbed my sword and shield
when that monster showed his face!
I seized him by his nostrils
and I started to erase!
At last I was a hero
so I tore the castle down
and threw the dragon in the box
and recycled him up town!
