To the Men That Stand Against the Dragon

The dragon is nor man or beast But destroys all to say the least If your not careful its fire you will see Every gust of wind is the dragons feed The dragons travels across the lands Destroying everything that it can The dragon can settle anywhere And get stronger with every breath of air It sleeps in are forests hides in are fields Waiting to be fed so are lands it can steal And for all the fire fighters that stand to fight it alone I salute to you for protecting my land and home Over time many men you have lost Still you stand against the dragon at any cost Protecting a wife's dreams a child's hope a mans pride Always knowing the dragon never meets death it only hides In memory of my father Paul Thomas who was a firefighter in Ancaster Ont And to all firefighters that we have lost in the world And for the fire fighters that protect are lives everyday Thank you and god bless
