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 I...

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...

Thanks, it's ALL his fault.

I do suppose I should repose

Over words I read this day

Instead I feel compelled to write

Of things I know beyond the sight

Issued by one who is not known

Only I can truly see it seems to me

Inside that tangled web

Things unknown in a tangled web
cause a spinning in the head
one of dread of the unseen
trips to heartbreak land
stars in our eyes and love
whispering her alluring song
we go along -sometimes
for the ride and found we
have lost our hide
skinned and raw we hold
a laced and bleeding heart
try to remember the good
before the rift tore us apart
and left us bleeding on the rack

And back we come for another wack
at the love trip of our lives
star filled eyes and joy in our heart
for there is nothing like having
someone fill our heart
with I love you-your're precious to me
you're worth more than a bucket of gold

So in your repose just suppose
there will come a day
when joy will sing
your heart will zing
and all is right with
your world once again
and innocence will ride
the horse on another course
of romance -go ahead and take
a chance live life to the fullest
we go around only once
get your gusto now

Summer ends

Autumn looms

Vacation ends in storm

Mother does not care  

Miss your breath

Love the way you show to me

Fury and beauty at once  

Seasons change, and so do I

Not at once

Inevitably  

Circuitous

Reasoning

Puzzles do abound  

Weeds and chaff

Life and death  

I read therefore

I write and more

[Soaring Feather]

I read the lines the others write
and often take so much delight
in words of jest or loving sounds
the songs of Mother Nature abound
I like the songs of blackest night best
when critters chatter in the wind
and light up the dark black night
with little glows from fairy tails

And so we do rhyme
at night it is the time
to sharpen wits and
old quill tips
dip them in the deepest well
of memory and record
the lonely dances and the
best with your lover at your chest

[Soaring Feather]

Good nite poets

May the sweet aroma of Lily of the Valley
fill your dreams
caress your face
tenderly lull you to sleep
in the safety of knowing love...

~ Dream a Little ~ Love a Lot ~

I remember the color your hair was...
the color of spiced rum
With memories of you
walking without me
in gentle oriental rain
Left me with dreams
of being lost in your embrace.
The peace in your eyes
shone through
I was lost, lost
in your eyes
..........lost
in your embrace...
Dreams of you at Indian Twilight...

Me Pet Dislikes



Me pet dislikes the neighbours
when they bang upon the wall,
me pet dislikes graffitists
with their aerosolish scrawl.
Me pet dislikes Kit-e-Kat,
dog biscuits, marrowbone.
Me pet doesn't want for Trill or nuts
and doesn't growl or groan.

Me pet dislikes demolition men;
doesn't wallow in a bog.
me pet's not veg or animal,
though a bit of him's a frog.
Me pet's name it is Alfred
and, unlike other pets,
he doesn't need no exercise
or visits to the Vet's.

He's much opposed to climbin' trees
and is quite averse to water,
and unlike most of Alfred's ilk
he's not engulfed by mortar.
He doesn't fetch the daily paper,
retrieve a stick or lick
but Alfred is a solid friend
as Alfred is a brick.
