there was once a green little dragon
who lived in a faraway mystical jungle
his eyes were blue
and full of rue
he was alone
on his grandiose throne
and so one day he decided to roam
to seek the legendary gnome
but found instead a lonely blossom
"why are you sad?"
the green dragon asked
"because i am ugly...
i look like no other and i don't feel cozy,"
the blossom replied
"but that is exactly why you are a beauty,"
the green dragon cried
"there's no one here like you
you are unique
so don't be blue"
she looked around and said,
"yesssss... i am me
and i am pretty!"
the blossom started to sway
to the wind's gentle play
and the green dragon went on his way
back at his throne
he laid prone
with a big smile and not a groan
“If we can bring poetry back into the lives of our children,
we can transform our world.”
~Deepak Chopra~
