"I really need to clean my den!" Said the dragon, that's just when A thought had struck him in the head-- To do the work—but be in bed! The dragon hatched a master plan To steal a good hardworking man And have him do the cleaning chores While the dragon ate some S'mores! (Cooked with his breath, of course…) He set up a trap, in his eyes were a gleam, To capture someone when they’re deep in a dream— And then take them here to the dragon’s snug home Deep in the side of the massive huge dome. Unfortunately the trap did work And the cruel dragon (who’s being a jerk) Captured a small, little innocent child Whose strength was not great and abilities mild. “Oh no,” the dragon said to himself, “He can’t even reach this bottom shelf! Great what now am I going to do? I can’t make this kid finish all the chores through!” “Uh, pardon me, Mr. Dragon, sir?” The little kid said with a bit of a slur. “Huh? What is it?” the dragon replied, Then listened intently as the kid sighed. “Right now I’m deep in the shadow of doom— My mom’ll kill me if I don’t clean my room! I was, uh, thinking…could you give me some help?” Surprised, the big dragon let out a small yelp. “Um…sure I will! But one little problem…” “I’ve got lots, I usually solve ‘em!” “Well, I’d like to stay at your house, you know… But would your mom let you keep me, though?” “I wouldn’t mind a dragon friend! She might just agree to it in the end… She’ll make some rules to follow and such, But do me a favor—don’t eat too much!” Eventually his mom did agree, That’s how the kid got to live with me. When I clear the room of dust and sand, I always get a helping hand. And then I remember the trap that I laid, But all that’s forgotten right after we’ve played! ______________________________________________ Little Spyro T.
