This poem is inspired by my seven year old grand-daughter Apsara who lives and breathes dragons, and hopes to meet one someday!

                                      
                                                           DRAGON LANGUAGE
 
  What language do dragons speak?
  The answer to this important question I must find out,
  For if ever I meet a dragon,
  I’ll want to speak to him without a doubt.
  I must find out in which language I must ask,
  A dragon all the things that I want to know –
  And I hope the dragon will understand my accent;
  I’ll make sure of course, that my words come out slow.  
  Will the dragon speak English, Hindi, French, or Greek?
  If you have ever spoken to a dragon, will you please  tell me,
  How did you communicate with the dragon?
  In which language did you speak to him? Then, I'll get ready.
  If I have to learn a new language, I must prepare
  And it's better that I start learning it right away -
  Because in case I ever meet a dragon, 
  I must be quite sure of what to say!
