It was a long cold winter
Cold trapped me in my room
I rarely went here or there
I rarely went anywhere
But the warmth is coming soon
I need to change some things
I need to change my mind
I need it so very much
I need a different sense of touch
And I think now’s the time
So here inside a warming house
I take a pen to write
To someone busy wondering
About something I’m pondering
During my restless night
Dearest Squire, how are you
Has time treated you well
Have you been on any journeys
There was one that was for me
And this one I will tell:
When the snow was thick and deep
I think is was December
For the trees were ready to be trimmed
As the soft snow sparkled on them
That’s something I do remember
Busy is as busy does
As busy needs to be
On I traveled to the shore
Where waves didn’t move anymore
That’s were I began to see
Everything needs to be hushed
Everything needs to sleep
So dreams must return I’m sure
There awaits another adventure
For the stories I wish to keep
So from the short journey
I then headed back home
Quiet in the night I thought
Dreams are meant to be made not caught
Whether in company or alone
Then suddenly in my attic’s den
I hear a noise come thumpin’
Fear gripped me yet I needed to see
An adventure must await for me
So up the stairs I went in
Puffs of dust and little black soot
Spread out under my foot
And a witches hat from Old hag Nan
And a red pitch-fork from Farmer Dan
Fell onto a bag of treats
The kind Dragons like to eat
So I kicked it to see what was there
This isn’t the place for a lair
Half of the bag was gone
From what the Dragons were chewing on
The wrappings still were there
Then silently I stood still
My mind suddenly felt the worst
What if firey Dragons could blow
The biggest bubble you’ll ever know
And at will could make them burst
