On Dragons' Wings

How to fly on dragons’ wings,
To dance with faeries,
To laugh,
To sing.
You must teach them all these things,
And witness all the joy it brings.


Teach them how to love to learn,
Not memorise and rhyme in turn.
Their imaginations you must churn,
If noble title you will earn.

For is it not our sacred role,
To unlearn all that we were told?
Our children’s greatness,
Watch unfold,
Encourage, nurture, and behold.

We have this chance now you and I,
To free our children,
Watch them fly.
Set the colours of the world alight,
With soaring spirits shining bright.

Mom, or Dad, may our titles be,
Yet they must be earned,
Not privileged thee.
For if we do our duty well, we’ll see,
Our children become much more than we.

How to fly on dragons’ wings.
To dance with faeries,
To laugh,
To sing.
You must teach them all these things,
And celebrate the joy it brings.
