Cocking her head

To one side

She looks up

Curious eyes sparkling

Her grandfather began

He told a tale

Of such strength

Such wisdom

The little girl closed her eyes

A half-smile lit up her face

A violet dragon roared

Thundering over

The over-fluffed clouds

On the dragon’s back

Stood a young man

With a mischievous

Gleam in his eye

He called out

Looking over

The grandfather saw

His only granddaughter

Lightly snoring

Her head in the sky

Saying nothing

The elderly man

Closes the storybook

Kisses his granddaughter

And looks back

A sparkle nearly covering

His eye

The girl dreamed

A violet dragon roared

Thundered over

The over-fluffed clouds

On the dragon’s back

Stood a young man

With a mischievous

Gleam in his eye

He called out

The girl dreamed
