Dragon Tails

Folder: 
Before 2002

I breathe and spew fire

I fly overhead with more speed than a sea serpent

I am braver than a steed

Stronger than the most fierce giant

I am as friendly as a teddy bear

As harmful as...a kiss

As graceful as a swan.

I love Dragons.
And this poem is so cool!

"As harmful as... a Kiss" This line makes this poem. Bravo! It's the kind of line you read and won't forget. I like the whole idea of the dragon then throwing the notion of "love" and "pain" in one line to change the poem from a strictly concrete description to an allegory of love and pain in the abstract.
