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.
