Dragon's Tooth
I felt a hot breath On the back of my neck. When I turned around there was nobody there. The only thing there was a tooth. A dragon's tooth.
I polished it so much that it shined like the sun. It was put on a chain. Now it swings freely on my neck. Brings me good luck wherever I turn.
I noticed this shadow following me. A huge dark shadow. A beautiful creature he was. But I always saw him in the corner of my eye.
Without turning around one day I asked Do you want your tooth back? I was trembling all over.
He replied so calmly Please stop trembling I am not going to hurt you. Yes, I do want my tooth back.
I took his tooth off my neck slowly. And handed it to him With my back facing him.
Turn around Look at me!
When I did I saw in his claw was a dragon tooth. A highly jeweled dragon tooth.
For you So you can remember me.
I wear his tooth everyday. Now and again I see his shadow.
