The Dragonflies'Lair ~ Thread ~ XXXIII
Soaring Feather/ Poets of The Dragonflies' Lair | February 10, 2007 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 02/11/2007 7:01:41 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...

Written on another thread.



As the visage of her face reflects
culture, grace, and patience
the shadowed eyes recall a time
when there was no grace at all.


Living through the ragged times
her character builds like pearls
to glow behind the lace she wears
a countenance to behold.

I think I need to soar today
I don't like being earth bound
I'll spread my wings heavenward
and listen for the sound
of wings a rustle in the breeze
as tiny bits of fluff float on
fluffy white clouds away up high
and tiny faeries play nearby
in the cove of moss, telling secrets
from the underground of nasty dirty trolls

You see, the faeries know the good the bad
the ugly lies that are told
They spread their cheer of goodness near
the ears of young and old.

as you soar among the clouds,
the people below think out loud,
and yearn not to be earthbound and to be free,
and break the bounds of gravity.

It's a good day to be lazy
my feet don't wanna get cold
from being out in the ice and snow
with snow balls hanging off my fur
I think, I just prefer, to lounge here
on my sofa, and grouch about the lousy
weather out there, while I'm safe upon my couch.

A Bird Came Down The Walk
 
  A bird came down the walk:
He did not know I saw;
He bit an angle-worm in halves
And ate the fellow, raw.

And then he drank a dew
From a convenient grass,
And then hopped sidewise to the wall
To let a beetle pass.

He glanced with rapid eyes
That hurried all abroad,--
They looked like frightened beads, I thought;
He stirred his velvet head

Like one in danger; cautious,
I offered him a crumb,
And he unrolled his feathers
And rowed him softer home

Than oars divide the ocean,
Too silver for a seam,
Or butterflies, off banks of noon,
Leap, splashless, as they swim.

Emily Dickinson
