Who loved to dance to a lively tune.

As they danced together into the night.

Filling the air with joy so deep.

As Duke followed her dance commands.

Dakota had a dragon small,
It danced around, making a call.
One day it danced with such might,
And Dakota laughed at the sight.
Its wings fluttered, scales did gleam,
A dragon's dance, like a dream.
They danced together through the day,
With joy that never would fade away.

Turning every day into a light.
With every twirl and playful glide,

As Dakota's dragon stole the show.

By twilight, the dance did end,
But their bond would never bend.
Dakota hugged her dragon tight,
Dreaming of dances in the night.
With each new day, they'd dance again,
In a world where joy had no end.
