Of Knights and Dragons

The day was dawning
The sun was yawning
The dragon spread its wings

Over the village
To plunder and pillage
To feast 'till his feasting was done

He returned to his lair
Found a dragon slayer
They clashed with both fury and might

The battle went on
From dusk until dawn
Neither one gaining advantage

The very next day
The dragon flew away
He left the knight sore and defeated

The dragon flew on
Rose into the dawn
The knight stumbled home in disgrace
