Nestled away in the boughs of the tree

Clutching a candy cane larger than he

With eyes as wide as the span of his wings

Hidden by ornaments and red beaded strings

Tapers of wax burn a soft candlelight

Reflections of Christmas shine in the night

Though small as he is, I’m sure you’ll agree

This little dragon, is the star on the tree
