The dragon looks at me with narrowed eyes,
It’s fiery breath towards me flies.
Just in time I shield myself, or I would have been aflame,
Treating a dragon with a cold, is no easy game…

Nice little poem! A great take on the prompt. π The thought of treating an under-the-weather dragon is actually a rather sweet one — it conjures up a lovely little image!

Memoirs of a veterinarian! Or could that be part of a treatise on Dragon Lore? I can almost see that rhyme as a leading note into a tome on wyverns. A witty warning shot that the contents might lead to cremation.
Good to have you back in the BB!

My pleasure! One thing about visiting BB entries is the sheer diversity of takes. You never quite know what youβll find.
Really good to have you back again too. Itβs one of those oddities…a community that notices when someone isnβt there that should be. Real life I get that, but here itβs something I never quite expected. π

I love how you flipped my assumption upside down when I realized this wasn’t about a battling knight! Great little story with burning humor!

A dragon sneeze…what does a dragon use to wipe a drippy snout? Maybe a fire extinguisher? Maybe you were writing more metaphorically but as I read it did give me a laugh. Thanks for sharing.

My pleasure Patricia! π
I’m glad you liked it! π
I would imagine dragons use rocks to wipe out snot. Rocks would be quite soft for them!
