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...

Yup, so true.

Well, the heat is on, the manse is warm,
nearly the end of May, it’s not that unusual
really it isn’t, while snow is not an unknown
phenomenon, in the month of May.
I would hope we've seen the last, but would not break
down to cry,
if snow flurries were seen here and there
it's because, it is that time of year.

The weather patterns have changed. I am not so sure that it was the free emissions of the cows of the Al “Jabba” Bores dragon breath. Hope that you have seen the last of the snow until winter.

Well, nothing I can do about the weather except move to a warmer climate.

If you did, you would miss all of the fun that only a truly significant snowfall could bring.

Good morning everyone!



Let Love Go, If Go She Will
by Robert Louis Stevenson


LET love go, if go she will.
Seek not, O fool, her wanton flight to stay.
Of all she gives and takes away
The best remains behind her still.


The best remains behind; in vain
Joy she may give and take again,
Joy she may take and leave us pain,
If yet she leave behind
The constant mind
To meet all fortunes nobly, to endure
All things with a good heart, and still be pure,
Still to be foremost in the foremost cause,
And still be worthy of the love that was.
Love coming is omnipotent indeed,
But not Love going. Let her go. The seed
Springs in the favouring Summer air, and grows,
And waxes strong; and when the Summer goes,
Remains, a perfect tree.


Joy she may give and take again,
Joy she may take and leave us pain.
O Love, and what care we?
For one thing thou hast given, O Love, one thing
Is ours that nothing can remove;
And as the King discrowned is still a King,
The unhappy lover still preserves his love.

In Time Of Silver Rain
 
  In time of silver rain
The earth
Puts forth new life again,
Green grasses grow
And flowers lift their heads,
And over all the plain
The wonder spreads
Of life,
Of life,
Of Life!
In time of silver rain
The butterflies
Lift silken wings
To catch a rainbow cry,
The trees put forth
New leaves to sing
In joy beneath the sky
As down the roadway
Passing boys and girls

Go singing, too,
In time of silver rain
When Spring
And life
Are new.
