~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Poetry Thread XXV~
The Seven Muses | March 8, 2006 | bentfeather/Poets of the Lair

Posted on 03/07/2006 9:06:41 PM PST 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...

Oh, yeah - I love the tunes . . . and the poetry. No talent here for writing - just appreciating!

Kinda surprised that you fear horses. I've had a love affair with them since childhood. But then I also like snakes, so go figure! John's correct though - they are gentle and loving . . . but you'll never believe that, will you? heheheh

We love having you here to appreciate our efforts.





Horses.
The fear came in childhood. Never got over it.
I have a problem with height's too.
One is tall when on the back of a horse.

You can hear the tunes without problems then?? Sometimes I don't know unless folks tell me.

Thanks FRiend, you have been so nice to me, of course you always have been a sweetheart... Please, enjoy!!

I worked hard all day, trimming roses, planted 5 trees and a shrub, printed and folded all the Chapel bulletins for the morning services and produced this inspiring gospel filled half hour. Tell me God wasn't helping me today!! Praise His Holy Name!!

Folks, if you like good music that will make you feel great, this is it!

Thank You, unc.

WOW that is a lot of work, just the gardening stuff.

Printing and folding are time consuming, nice to do it for Chapel.

There's always room in the Lair for Sunday and God's word every day. God has a sense of humor. Guess that's why he likes poets--we get a little wild sometimes.

lovely frame

I have all my frames custom designed by a gal known as pelikan. She is mouthy and opinionated, but she is quite talented at a number of things and one is creating marvelous frames. You say you'd like to see some of her framework? Well here are a few!

Rough Patches
Pray For This Man
The Lighthouse
I Am An American
Old Geezers
Never Mind The Cost

My Garden of Delights


A carpet of Violets spread before my eye
A hint of Fiddle Head Fern in the air
Hyacinth's aroma beckon me
spend some time dance with me
in cool evenings rare

when my scent is strong
alluring in full moon light...

We can't be wrong to dance our dance
in gardens dark in shadowed spaces
kissed by falling dew...fireflies
blinking bright carousing charisma
in night skies...

My garden delight...
