Dragon X
Listen to Daniel's poem ... read by JH
There’s a Dragon in the sky
Ridden by two fearless knights
Using superpowered satnavs
Hurtling up into the night
There’s a Dragon in the sky
With scales of Arctic white
Protecting it from forces
On its supersonic flight
There’s a Dragon in the sky
With not a wing in sight
How does it keep its course?
How does it gain its height?
There’s a Dragon in the sky
With flames so blazing bright
Shooting fire from its behind
I hope he’ll be alright
Ridden by two fearless knights
Using superpowered satnavs
Hurtling up into the night
There’s a Dragon in the sky
With scales of Arctic white
Protecting it from forces
On its supersonic flight
There’s a Dragon in the sky
With not a wing in sight
How does it keep its course?
How does it gain its height?
There’s a Dragon in the sky
With flames so blazing bright
Shooting fire from its behind
I hope he’ll be alright
