Poem: The Importance Of Being Able To Spell Correctly.

the importance of being able to spell correctly

.

the only dragon in the world

was feeling awfully sad

he could not find himself a friend

and that was very bad

.

one day he spied a notice

which was fastened to a tree

and said ‘i’m oh so happy

i’ve found dragons just like me’

.

the notice said  ‘do join us

we’re the infantry dragoons*

there’s horses-fighting-uniforms

and military tunes

.

the lonely dragon tried to join

he wrote a smashing letter

doomed to disappointment

‘cos his spelling was not better

.

.

* the gun the dragoons carried

- a dragon was it’s name

but don’t let that confuse you

’twas a musket just the same

.
