The Dragon's Pearl

"The Dragon's Pearl"


                        Once there was a Dragon 
                        with a gigantic Pearl in it's mouth!
                        No one on earth could take it!
                        They tried from north to south!

                        No one knew the secret.
                        They tried from east to west!
                        No one could  take
                       "The Dragon's Pearl",
                        and they tried their very best!

                        The more that they attempted,
                        the more each time they failed!
                        Every plan that was used,
                        for this Pearl,
                        the Dragon always derailed!

                        No one knew the secret
                        which is simply this....
                        If you try to "TAKE"
                        "The Dragon's Pearl!",
                        the Dragon will ALWAYS resist!

                        So the challenge of this dilemma
                        as you can plainly see,
                        is taking "THIS" Pearl,
                        from "THAT" Dragon!
                        This will not be done easily!

                        This is the secret to getting the Pearl!
                        It is tried and It's true.....
                       "First!.........
                       "Tame The Dragon!",
                       and he'll "GIVE" the Pearl to you!"
