~The Dragon Flies Lair III~

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 guides
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and I...

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...

Mythology, too "far out" for me.

His Fury

Dazed and shattered
my desire was buried laughing
I still love his free will
and soft feelings
I am his fury...

Ode to Dust

Dust, you are disgusting!
I move you from
here to there....
I find you are everywhere!
On my knick-knacks....
on my "puter", on the floor,
above the door...
my mirrors reflect your
presence there
Like I said, you're everywhere!

Should company come
I always request
they sign my
dusty guest book
or, if they wish
a table top,
the tv screen...
now that is neat!

Each day I dust
my monitor, I need
to watch the poets play!
So..... an ode to you
o' nuisance dust
the game
we play is a must!
Moving from here to there
each day, ode to dust!

Autumn
your time
to rhyme
shine...
here's
to you
Lady Dancer
a butterfly...
symbol of
freedom!

SAMWolf



from a far off country your parents brought you to the land of the free and the home of the brave
and you became one of America's sons

as you grew, the fabric of your soul became intricately woven among the threads of Old Glory
your spirit sings the songs of our founding fathers

for payment not required you volunteered to give all
you joined the many that fight for the freedom we possess
you band of brothers, our beloved countrymen

in harms way you proudly served, came home and served again
older now and out of uniform you continue to serve in both words and deeds



your love of country, deeper than home grown
blessed with knowing the true meaning of liberty and freedom
causes you to respect America's flag and all it stands for

your love of country will never die
and when you've given her all you have to give
you will rest in the bosom of her for eternity

it's easy to love you
and call you my friend

snippy,

What a beautiful presentation. A well deserved tribute to our SAM.
You have expressed the man to the ninth degree.

Sam has one of the biggest hearts I have had the priviledged to know.

In turn, I am very honored to have you post this tribute to SAMWolf here in The Dragon Flies Lair.

True friends are rare these days, indeed.
