Once upon a time, in a land so grand, a young prince set out with sword in hand. He heard a dragon, big and green, who caused such trouble, if you know what I mean!
With a gleam in his eye and a heart full of cheer, he started his journey, facing no fear. Clip-clop, clip-clop, his horse trotted fast, through forests and valleys so vast.
The wind whispered secrets, the birds sang along, ‘Go find the dragon, fierce and strong!’ But the prince had a plan, not just any fight. He’d dance with the dragon, to make things right!
Down by a river, under the moon’s soft light, the dragon appeared, a grand and fiery sight. Rawr! went the dragon, with a mighty roar, but the prince didn’t tremble, his spirit soared.
The prince took a step and began to dance, twirling and spinning, this was his chance! The dragon looked puzzled, then started to grin, flapping its wings as it joined in.
Together they danced, under stars so bright, the forest enchanted by the whimsical sight. Stomp! Spin! Twirl! Jig! They moved with glee, as joyous as dancing could ever be.
The dragon laughed, no longer mean, ‘You’re brave and kind, a true royal, it seems.’ The prince bowed low, with a humble stance, ‘No need for swords, only a chance to dance.’
From that day forward, the two became friends, causing all the troubles to come to an end. Laughter and games, day after day, the prince and the dragon in their joyful ballet.
They’d tell their tale to everyone who’d listen, of how peace was found in a dance’s sweet rhythm. ‘Rawr!’ would roar the dragon, ‘Let’s dance again!’ ‘Indeed!’ said the prince, with a happy grin.
So if you hear a dragon roar, don’t just take flight, perhaps, like the prince, it's time to dance into the night. Who would have thought, such joy could be found? When you face a problem, try dancing around!
In a castle so splendid, they now both reside, the prince and his dragon, side by side. They teach all they meet, young and old, that with a little love and rhythm, new stories unfold.
The prince and the dragon, what a magical pair! With steps so light and hearts that care. And in their dance, a truth they reveal, that kindness and joy have a power to heal.
