   The Humble Dragon
 Beating his powerful wings,
 Breathing roars of flames

 Glistening green scales,
 Shimmering with sun's glory...
 ...Bows his head to cry

 Smoke sighs from nostrils,
 Flaring, thickening the air
 Light yellow eyes glare

 He stretches his tail,
 Lifts up his body with feet,
 Ascends to take flight
