                                           THE TONGUE

What weapon have I to fight the great dragon

That roars and snores with a split tongue he’s been waggon

Can I fight him with weapons of conventional means

or do I need something larger like shovels and beams

I have planned my attack and my offense is set

My defense is ready every detail I have met

So I slip up behind him, I see a slight problem

The dragon is wounded, on his leg he is hobblen

So I lay down my weapon, and walk straight to his face

I mended the wound and in his heart I found grace

The dragon wasn’t mad, just tender and sore

I’m sure glad his tongue isn’t wagging anymore
