For this week’s Poetry Friday I give you John Farrar and dragons, or a serious lack of.
Serious Omission
I know that there are dragons,
St. George’s, Jason’s, too,
And many modern dragons
With scales of green and blue;
But though I’ve been there many times
And carefully looked through,
I can’t find a dragon
In the cages at the zoo!
John Farrar
Cute!
oh come now, dragons are far too smart to be caught and they wouldn’t be caught dead in a nasty old zoo. They far prefer mountain tops and wide open spaces. Be real.
