+A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys
+
+Painted wings and giant's rings make way for other toys

+One gray night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
+
+And Puff, that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar
+
+His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain
+
+Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane
+
+Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave
+
+So Puff, that mighty dragon, sadly slipped into his cave
