I sat down to my quiet desk,

the end of the day,

I will try to rest.

I look and see there left behind

a golden dragon spread wings

with eyes so kind.

I called my son and said you forgot

your dragon is still here

on my table top.

He quietly paused

with a soft voice replied,

the dragon is there to stay by your side.

Dragons are fun,

but they are brave and strong

he is on your desk where he belongs.
