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

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, no I did not know that. I like him very much, too.


I will dig around at some point for somemore of his music.

Fearsome funnels from the sky
swirling, twirling
round and round
if caught up in this thing
you may not hit the ground.

Or you could
end up like Dorothy
in the Land of Oz
with red slippers tapping
in hopes of mapping
the way home to Kansas,
"whispering"
"there's no place like home Auntie Em.
There's no place like home."

Hope

My pirate name is:
Iron John Flint
A pirate's life isn't easy; it takes a tough person. That's okay with you, though, since you a tough person. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!
Aye, gives me a run'n sea, hard wind outta da quarter 'n a fat merchant ship ta plunder, 'n me me heart tis full 'n deed! Afterwards, a bit o wine 'n wenching ta fill me sails and settle me in a safe harbor!
