Harry, Ron and Hermione,
See Hagrid getting some dragon books from the library.
Hagrid asked them if they were still looking for Nicholas,
Ron said "Don't be ridiculous,
Don't you know?
We found out about him ages ago!"
Harry asks about the philosopher's stone and Fluffy,
Hagrid says "Can't talk here, but come for tea."
When they went to Hagrid's hut,
They saw that all the curtains were shut.
Even though it was a boiling day,
There was a blazing fire anyway.
Harry said "What's this?"
As he pointed to an egg, which was hard to miss.
Hagrid had won an illegal dragon egg,
When it hatched it nearly bit off his leg.
"He knows his mummy!"
Ron found this real funny.
"Where'd you get that from?" Hermione wasn't happy,
"Won it in a pub from a Greek chappie,
This is a dragon, a Norwegian Ridgeback."
"Don't you know this is illegal, do you wanna get the sack?"
"You live in a wooden house!" Hermione shouted,
"He's only a baby!" Hagrid retorted,
And with that they all snorted.
Malfoy looked in through the window,
"Oh no!" Hagrid bellowed. "He saw the little fellow!"
Harry was horrified and Hagrid was mortified,
They were in trouble, it could not be denied.
Over the next few days the trio helped look after Norbert with building dismay,
Ron got bitten, "Please let him go away!"
His hand turned green,
When the infection set in.
Ron hatched a daring plan,
"Send him to my brother, the Dragon Man."
"Go to Madam Pomfrey," cried Hermione,
They heard Hagrid say, "I can't let Norbert go, I'm his mummy!"
Although Hagrid was filled with all-consuming woe,
At last they persuaded Hagrid to let Norbert go.
Ron received the reply to his letter,
Charlie would take Norbert; that would be better!
Ron was getting sicker by the hour,
"How can I see Norbert off from the Astronomy tower?"
Malfoy strutted into the hospital wing and proclaimed "I hope you're feeling better."
And proceeded to steal Charlie's letter.
Hagrid cried and wailed and gave Norbert his favourite teddy bear,
Which they could hear Norbert repeatedly tear.
Up to the Astronomy tower they staggered,
They looked tired and haggard.
They were overjoyed to see Norbert go,
Delighted they descended down below.
