~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XV~
September 8, 2004 | bentfeather and Poets of the Lair

Posted on 09/08/2004 1:30:50 PM PDT by Soaring Feather

My Dragon Fly and Me

If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!

By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone

On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and me...

And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...

Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

I saw a door upon the hill
And so I entered inside
The thing in there that I saw
Were fragments of some dream..

Some dreams are like that
bits and pieces
this and that
some times old poets
sit in corners wearing hats!!

To: bentfeather; All
In fields of green with saber drawn
Or chilly climes 'neath Arctic dawn;
As celestial mother of a growing brood
As traveling Diva of patriotic mood;
FRiends ask, "Who are we?"

Whether Royal Dame of upstate abode
Or fabulously tanned Diva of the open road;
As seafaring warrior defending bygone honor
Or plains bred soldier documenting newfound valor;
FRiends ask, "Who are we?"

Be she talented artist of many names
Or a panhandle girl enjoying games;
Be he steadfast scourge of journalists biased
Or irreverent peddler of garments to hide us;
FRiends ask, "Who are we?"

Do you know?

Indeed, but who?

And, it need not be limited to that motley crue.

One could expand it with a verse or two to

Describe other FReepers with obtuse clues.
