A bit of whimsy and adventure for your day.<\/em><\/p>\n

Fly past the rings of Saturn
\nOn your dragon through the stars.
\nFan the flames that matters
\nTake your sword and guard what\u2019s ours!<\/p>\n

The Titans that hide behind them
\nOn ships as vast as moons
\nWe\u2019ll bring to battle e\u2019er we find them
\nAnd defeat them swift and soon.<\/p>\n

Our lances made of lighting
\nWill pierce their armor strong.
\nOur dragons\u2019 breath most fright\u2019ning
\nWill finish them e\u2019er long.<\/p>\n

Then home we go to feasting
\nAnd home to castle bright
\nWhile the rings of Saturn glisten
\nIn the soft starlight.<\/p>\n
