Take Care of Yourself First

Little Mortimer Dragon was selfless, heroic and brave.
He saved me! He is a hero! The villager would rave.
He depleted his energy, lost a large bit of his power.
Came home to nap, eat a bite, revitalize in a shower.

You have to stop giving all of your energy away said is Dad.
If you don’t save some for yourself, you will get sick, really bad.
Little Mortimer Dragon had to learn to take care of himself first.
If he had not learned this lesson, his illness might have gotten worst.
