Extraordinary Moth

Happy birthday dragon tamer
Who doused an old dragons flamer
Turned his be to randy doll
Sipping tea on a minds atoll

She quelled the fires of dragon me
Into a dragon drinking tea
Landed on my fiery throes
Put a handkerchief to my nose

A moth that likes to tame a flame
A moth with just uncanny aim
A moth that carries words of qualm
That puts out flames without alarm

She’s an Alice in wonderland
Without the music without the band
With wings that part the mist of myth
And powdered with the hues of pith

Happy birthday Janet Marie
I love your flights of apogee

Great write Sy!  I think I have the same moth wondering the halls of my home!  Very refreshing piece of work.  I enjoyed it and smiled all the way through.
