The Virginia Snallygaster Poem

More about The Virginia Snallygaster Poem

In Virginia's hills, a legend is told,
Of a creature fearsome, and strange, and bold.
The Snallygaster, a beast of the skies,
With wings and claws, and glowing red eyes.
Its body, like a reptile, with scales so thick,
A creature that's elusive, and quick to trick.
With a beak like a bird, and tentacles too,
The Snallygaster's appearance, a frightful view.
Some say it's a dragon, or a monster of lore,
A creature that's haunted the land's folklore.
Its origin unknown, its motives unclear,
The Snallygaster's legend, a mystery to peer.
So if you venture to Virginia's domain,
Keep your wits about you, and remain.
For the Snallygaster, a legend so grand,
A creature of wonder, in the hills of the land.
