Dragon as a skin tattoo
Ships to carry Viking crew
Dragon drawn on early maps
Garden where the dragon snaps
Ponds controlled by dragonflies
Dragon donning human guise
Serpent seen circling the globe
Dragon on a Chinese robe
Dragon flown as paper kite
Effigy in tribal rite
Dragon in computer games
Places bearing dragon names
Dragon as a kids cartoon
Origin of the word, "dragoon"
Dragon that the hero slew
Biggest thing that ever flew
Sleeping now, but when it wakes
Starts up storms and makes earthquakes
Dragon landing on your roof
Still say you, "Bring me proof...?"
I wrote this poem some 17 years ago, when I was 10 or 11, for a school English project. I was fascinated by dragons back then, and was attempting to prove in a poetic sort of way that they must have existed at some time in the past - history all over the world is littered with dragon references.
