His name Dijon, the color of mustard

To ride him calms my mind, flustered
I would ask him, to the mountain please
He would angle his wings, we’d fly with ease
Of course he would often detour
Anywhere, his choice du jour
I don’t mind the deviation much
Instinctively he knows when to touch
My mind with lovely stories told
Adventures together when we were bold
He’s my friend and companion true
He takes me where I forget the blue
We streak through a sunset glowing
All the while he is knowing
What my mind and heart feel
Every voyage a comfort wields.

A lovely poem.

I would love a dragon like yours, Cheryl, and I love his name and colour! The stories are a bonus, and the rhyming couplets add a kind of jauntiness to your poem, which is a delight to read.

I love your dragon’s name and his mellow vibes. I’d go for ride with this gentle soul.
