I leaned over to the side
Gazed at the world around me
I stopped at the little brook
And stretched out my wings
I watched the sun dance in the water
As I took a drink
I took off into the pink sky
Then you saw me clearly
My brilliant red and orange scales, shining in the sun
My colossal, bright red wings, swaying in the wind
My fierce, scarlet claws, skewering mice
My sharp, orange horns, almost like flames themselves
Everyone gasps in awe when they see me
I fly gracefully across the sunset sky
Thinking of lives of simpletons, of mice or humans
But then I push that thought away, happy for my dragon life
