Five green Dragons (Poem)
Five green dragons, making such a roar one danced away, and then there were four four green dragons dancing 'round a tree one dance away, and then there were three three green dragons dancing 'round you one danced away, and then there were two two green dragons, dancing in the sun one danced away, and then there was one one green dragon, having lots of fun she danced away, and then there were none. |
