Dragon's Breath

There's a dragon in our garden and he's hiding in the bin.
I looked closely, till it grew too hot, to check that he was in.

And, in case you don't believe me - and I tell you, I'm no liar -
Here's a photograph to prove it: one real dragon, breathing fire.

Can't see me, behind the camera lens, I'm far too busy clicking,
And thinking, to describe his flames, there's no word betters 'licking'!
