Lions and Dragons
Snap-Dragonsand Dande-Lions
Are not so very wild—
I never yet saw one forget
And try to hurt a child.
A Dande-Lion never roars
Not even once, for fun;
Nor waves his tail with angry wail—
Because he hasn' t one!

A Snap-Dragon will never snap
No matter how he feels,
Except to try to catch a fly
To brighten up his meals.
