An Unlikely Friendship

Note about the poem: I am 10 and this is my first time writing a poem. This is about making a friendship with a dragon. I got my inspiration from the movie "How to Train your Dragon".


Those spiky scales across your back;
You walked along my ridged path.
I hid to watch your fierce attack.
You never placed, on me, your wrath.

You stepped up to my trembling hand.
My heart raced fast as you drew near.
You picked me up, we gently land.
That moment that surceased my fear.

I never thought that this could be;
You’d be the one whom I adore.
A dragon that cares about me;
And we will be forevermore.

For Lily

Note about poem: My mom wrote this beautiful poem for me + ba-doo is what I used to call Barney. I am 10 and only just joined. I hope you enjoy my poetry.


Chubby arms that held me tight;
The one I rocked to sleep each night.

Tiny voice asking for "ba-doo";                        
My little girl, how I love you!                                                   

Starting school, so scared but strong;
I knew you'd well all along.

The whole world in your eyes of blue;
Your sweetness charmed just like I knew.

Coming home awash with tears;
I hope I helped allay your fears.

Growing up, so big and tall;
If I blink, I fear I'll miss it all.

Goodbye to all those little toys;
Bring on the gossip about boys.

You won't need me someday, maybe;
But you know you'll always be my baby.
