Dragon Fare

I invited a dragon to dinner (That was almost the wrong thing to do!) Have you ever seen what a dragon can do to a bowl of beef stew? The carrots were shrunken and shriveled. The celery- quite a sad sight, yet the dragon seemed rather delighted as he gobbled up every last bite! The salad was quite a disaster with the croutons burnt to a crisp and the lettuce was beyond recognition and wilted into a green wisp! Still that dragon ate every last morsel and was pleased as a dragon could be! Cause he roared and belched rather loudly, but politely exclaimed, “Pardon Me!” Next I passed the desert to the dragon as we giggled and talked for a spell. Then the dragon thanked me profusely and uttered a steamy farewell. He taught me to laugh at my worries, enjoy life with good company, so tomorrow he’s coming for breakfast and frying the bacon for me!
