The Dragonflie's Lair~Thread XLV
Poets of The Lair | November 30, 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...

Yum, dinner sounds delicious.

Very unique way to celebrate ones birthday! Not the naked part but the street dancing probably was a bit much, it was cold too, wasn’t it?? LOL

Cold here tonight about 18F, wind chill 12.

18 degrees, 9 degrees wind chill, and I’m firmly hidden in a warm apartment and a fleece throw!

I think your chilly weather has blanketed the North East as well. We have lake affect storm warnings up for the night.

Glad to be in where it’s warm. ;0)

Goodnight everyone.


My valiant knight
thy furrowed brow
tell stories not spoken
but hangs heavy as your cloak
hanging from slumping shoulders
war worn, tired from bloody battle


of clashing blades, slashing swords,
yet holding forth a stalwart posture
of honor while bent from battle
on this night-come my knight
to your maiden's chambers tower
high away from the clamor
to the midnight hour of magic moments


Lay thy bloodied beaten head
upon the softness of my bed
and lay in peace 'til the cock doth crow
then off to battle thou must go


White Knight honor to uphold
bravely striding before the fold
leading your company to victory
and bestow your world with fealty.

“Nude clog dancing ???

You’ve never nude clog danced? I didn’t realize how sheltered a life you’ve led there in monastery. Its very invigorating, very freeing to the psyche, and give you a chance to sweat out the poisons of our culture in an uninhibited and low cost way to improved mental health.

Mr Snowman
 
  All alone, a snowman stands, staring out at the world.
What a life!
Short, cold, freezing really,
rigidly waiting for the 'melting' feeling to arrive.

The children have made him as comfortable as they can.
A nice bright red check scarf, a carrot nose, which he can nibble on, if he gets a bit peckish!
Nice black velvet hat, which he feels is worth having, cos it makes him feel important, and keeps his head warm!

They usually build him a friend, someone he can chat to, but not this year.
Apart from a robin who sings, way up above his head, in the holly bush, he's alone,
and time hangs heavily upon him, especially when the long nights descend.

But, he's just a snowman, a no-man,
yet he gives the children such pleasure, which cheers his chilly heart
and makes his 'life' worthwhile.
