His face is as green
as a leathery frog.
His breath is as bad
as the fumes from a bog.
His back is all scaly
and rough to the touch,
and I love him very much,
His eyes are as dark
as the blackest of holes,
with pupils that glisten
like fiery coals.
His belches are deadly
and stink most severely,
and I love him very dearly.
His shout is as loud
as a violent explosion.
His sweat is acidic
and causes corrosion.
His claws are as sharp
as the blade of a knife,
and I’d trust him with my life.
