I wish I had a dragon
With diamond-studded scales,
With claws like silver sabers,
And fangs like silver nails,
A dragon fierce and faithful,
Always ready by my side,
A dragon to defend me
Or take me for a ride.

I wish I had a dragon
With eyes of shining gold,
Who breathed a plume of fire
Whenever it was told,
A dragon so ferocious
It might frighten Frankenstein,
But not a lazy dragon
Who sleeps all day... like mine!

- Jack Prelutsky

I'm not sure if this is appropriate for ArtSpots, but I guess I'll find out if it's deleted. :)

This was for my Drawing and Design for Illustrators class. It also has an illustrative border, but it's a bit crap. My professor still has it, but when/if I get it back I'd like to touch up the clouds with white acrylic. I sort of flubbed them and had to run with it.
