"Puff, the Magic Dragon" (or just "Puff") is an American folk song written by #PeterYarrow of #PeterPaulAndMary from a poem by #LeonardLipton. It was made popular by Peter, Paul and Mary in a 1962 recording released in January 1963. Lipton wrote a poem about a #dragon in 1959, and, when Yarrow found it, he wrote the lyrics to "Puff" based on the poem. After the song was released, Yarrow searched for Lipton to give him credit for the song.

#PeterYarrow

He has passed away from cancer. I was unaware of his trouble with the law and jail time. Seems he made amends as best he could. His legacy is only slightly lessened in my opinion.
