We were the Dinosaurs (-Nynaeve)

We were the Dinosaurs

I am, I am, an Alamosaurus, A dinosaur lean and tall,

I eat grass, I eat plants, a herbivore is what I am,

America was my home, seventy million years ago,

I am I am, an Alamosaurus, a sauropod dinosaur.

I am, I am, a Liliensternus, A small theropod,

With my slashing tooth arrays and my speed,

I catch prosauropods and ornithischians,

I am, I am, a Liliensternus, and lived in Germany.

I am, I am, a Nomingia, with a feather fan tale,

I had a beaked jaw, and My diet was omnivorous,

Seventy million years ago, I roamed the Gobi desert,

I am, I am, a Nomingia, a type of oviraptorid theropod.

I am, I am, a Stegosaurus, large and slow,

I eat plant, and have a powerful spiked tale,

To protect myself from predators in America,

I am, I am, a Stegosaurus, a hundred and fifty million years ago.

We are, we are, the dinosaurs, there were millions of us,

We were reptiles, and with wide strong jaws,

For a more than a hundred fifty million years we lived.

We are, we are, the dinosaurs, and we dominated the the earth.

Note: To those interested, the poem is inspired by the song, "I am, I am, a bulldozer" and I am hoping could be sung to the same tune - not sure though. That is the song that kept running in my head while writing this out.
