A little red dragon
Afraid to fly high
When she met the bigger one
He let out a huge sigh
"Everyone can fly
You just need a push
You need to flap your wings
Not hide behind a bush"
"What?" the little one asked
It was her favorite word
The curious red dragon
Knew she wasn't a bird
"Come here kid"
He made his wings flap
Saying some sweet words
He lured her in a trap
"Look at the sky
Look at this amazing leaf"
Showing her the beauty of nature
He pushed her off a cliff
"Aaaa..." she let out a shout
She trembled inbetween the blinks
Then the instincts took over
As she opened her mighty wings
She flapped a couple of times
But nothing really happened
Losing all her hope
She feared getting trampled
Just before the land
She gave a final flap
He watched it from above
As she gave her death a slap
Inch by inch she rose
A little above the ground
Forgetting all her fears
A new confidence she had found
She flew to the mountain top
And by the river banks
Landing beside the elder
She bowed and said, "Thanks"

"Sometimes, all you need is a push"
