A young and purple dinosaur <br />With a red rose in his mouth, <br />Was carrying the flower home <br />As he was flying south. <br /> <br />He knew he had to get there, <br />For awhile he’d been away. <br />This flower would say “I’ve missed you, ” <br />In a very special way! <br /> <br />Dinosaur’s have to work hard <br />To gather up enough food, <br />To feed their own large families, <br />Meals to them that will taste good! <br /> <br />Dinosaur’s do not use money. <br />They won’t fit into any bank. <br />Instead they trade in flowers, <br />They have the Lord above to thank! <br /> <br />So If you see a meadow, <br />Where many flowers are in bloom, <br />Dinosaurs planted seeds there <br />As you slept peacefully in your room!<br /><br />Robert Edgar Burns<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-purple-dinosaur/
