"Jealousy" by Valerie Valdary Higgins

Dain, don't be such a fool,
Of course I don't love a dragon more than you.
Ferrek'antharlin isn't even my species for goodness sake!
He's company when you go adventuring into the blue,
And what would you have me do?
I could go drinking with Jerel the blacksmith,
Now, his job keeps him near home,
And Jerel's asked me a few times,
Well, more than a few.
But no! I'm a virtuous wife.
I stay home and play chess with my dragon.
No, I don't want you to play chess with me,
I always beat you.
And what do you imagine I could get up to with a dragon?
The foot doesn't fit the shoe.
Ferrek'antharlin can only just squeeze into the barn,
And I'm human.
You just don't think things through.
Me, I'm going to fly, dragonback, high in the sky.
Dain, just go on your quest, will you?
