One more for my little boy.
This is along the lines of "Once There Was a Dragon".....he used to ask for original bedtime stories and a few I jotted down...this is one of the few.....
Once There Lived a Prince
Once there lived a prince
In a forest dark and old,
Who was friend to all the beasts
and whose story must be told.
In a castle made of gold
Lived the prince so young and fair,
With his faithful magic dragon
The two made quite a pair.
They would play throughout the day
Through the forest they would run,
Laughing loud and singing out
Through the rain, the snow or sun.
Swimming with the dolphins and
Playing in the waves
Is how they'd spend their days
After exploring all the caves.
Chasing falling stars and
Comets through the sky
Was their nightly game to play
As through the skies they'd fly.
Picnics on a blanket in a meadow
Green and gold,
Theirs is a story that
Never shall grow old.
