The Dragonflies' Lair ~ Thread XXXVII~May, June 2007
Soaring Feather/Poets of The Lair | May 7, 2007 | Soaring Feather

My Dragonfly 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...

RE: "...hope you had a nice day."

Yes thanks, another good one indeed. ...Watching wildlife as usual. Today I got to see a (mother, I assume) deer chase a coyote (animal-type) out of the yard at a dead run. ...The rest of his pack must have been denned up, because he appeared to be all alone, and 'defenseless', out there around 4PM. ...We usually don't see them, if at all, until much later, around dusk. He must have missed lunch.)

Champion
Author Unknown

The average runner runs
until the breath in him is gone,
But the champion has the iron will
that makes him carry on.

For the rest the average runner begs
when limp his muscles grow,
But the champion runs on leaden legs,
his courage makes him go.

The average man's complacent
when he's done his best to score,
But the champion does his best,
and then he does a little more.

Sounds delicious. Now I will have to go and settle for Fig Newtons, banana and coffee.

The House of Newton
little cakes of figs
a taste of the exotic
while doing a jig
A banana from the topics
grown with care
harvested green then
transported here
Ah, the coffee bean
where did it germinate
in Hawaii, in South America
do we grow coffee bean trees here?
An exotic breakfast you plan for yourself
where's the grapes, and the persimmon
are not they fine and dandy
or just a matter of not being handy? LOL

Great poem. I feel full just from reading it. As far as the grapes are concerned they weren’t handy as you stated.

Yes indeed you have unique powers. Have you considered bottling it and competing with Zantrex3?

Zantrex3, LOL I have a struggle with my own richly endowed flesh. I had better turn my “powers inward”!
