Abc Wednesday - R for Reclining Dragon.


This week's letter is
R

I'm showing you another of my dragons - well, they do rather fill the house, and they make my most important collection!
This one is a very dozy dragon - and you can all stop saying he's like his owner!

This is meant to be the front of the ornament.
The dragon is
RECLINING
on a crescent moon, holding the favourite jewel of his treasure.
He looks very RESTFUL and RELAXED.

This is the REVERSE.
I think it's easier to see the REALLY sleepy expression on his face.
To find more R posts, visit the ABC Wednesday page, and enjoy the entries.

Love your dragon, who seems to be able to do much more than just Rest and Relax!!

This dragon reminds me of the one in The Hobbit. Is it true dragons know every bit of their treasure and, though they have no use for any of it, refuse to share with anyone else? He certainly looks as though he wouldn't give up this jewel for anyone:)

You must have quite a dragon collection. I've seen other postings with them. I collect pitchers but never thought of it on P week. I like the reclining dragon, and he does look sleepy.

You have a very splendid collection, and this one is very cute! Is it OK to call a dragon cute? Or does that annoy them?

A quote comes to mind, though I have no idea where it comes from:

'Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup!'

Rockin' on the moon. Nifty dragon.

Love your dragons and never tire of seeing them. Do they have names?

Hi there (dozy) :)

Very cool photos, definitely not repulsive. If my husband weren't racked out asleep, I'd share this post now because he loves dragons, although his collection is very small. I especially enjoyed the one reclining on a crescent moon because I love the moon!

Where does a dragon RECLINE? Wherever it wants to!

I'm getting the impression you like dragons, DD.

Michele said...

Ah, the sleepy expression... reminds me of me in the last few months. I hope to snap out of that soon so I may visit you more often.

Thank you for taking the time to visit me. I really do appreciate it.

Hugs

I love the way his tail is so casually curled over the moon. It adds just that last little bit of needed detail.
