Once They All Believed in Dragons
Once they all believed in dragons
When the world was fresh and young,
We were woven into legends,
Tales were told and songs were sung,
We were treated with obeisance,
We were honored, we were feared,
Then one day they stopped believing --
On that day, we disappeared.Now they say our time is over,
Now they say we've lived our last,
Now we're treated with derision
Where we once ruled unsurpassed.
We must make them all remember,
In some way we must reveal
That our spirit lives forever --
We are dragons! We are real!
If you don't believe in dragons,
It is curiously true
That the dragons you disparage
Choose to not believe in you.
Once upon a happenstance
I met a knight in armor.
I fixed my flame upon his lance --
It was a four-alarmer!
My dragon's been disconsolate
And cannot help but pout,
Since he defied a thunderstorm
That put his fire out.

"god bless the rain, and the stormclouds that bring it.
god bless the music, and the voices that sing it.
god bless the ones who sing everything wrong.
god bless the creatures who do not belong." -- dav pilkeyOther misunderstood gifts at the Thistle Patch:
