~The Dragon Flies Lair III~
October 18, 2003 | bentfeather

Posted on 10/18/2003 7:27:28 AM PDT 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 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...

Morning:

Wake Up

I’d like to take a moment,
I need to bend your ear.
We need to fix a broken thing,
The time to do so’s here.
America the melting pot,
It’s how we got this far.
But many want to change that now,
By lowering the bar.
No need to learn our history,
Or learn what we’re about.
Just speak your native language,
Complain we leave you out.
You have no right to be here now,
Feeding off this nation.
We need to stop the influx of,
Illegal immigration.

Thanks. I'm feeling politial this morning.

Bring It On

You wormy little weasels,
Who wish to do us harm.
You make your threats to all of us,
And try to cause alarm.
Well here is what we say to you,
We’re waiting for you now.
So crawl out of your stinking cave,
And we will clean your plow.
But you’re afraid to stand up straight,
So we know you will creep.
Up in the dark behind our backs,
And hit us in our sleep.
So come on now out in the sun,
And face us in the light.
We’re ready to defend ourselves,
You are not causing fright.
So stop the talk and walk the walk,
We’ll bring you to your knees.
Your thrash talk isn't scaring us,
You liberal nominees.

We’ll bring you to your knees.

You liberal nominees.

I know I like these four lines.

Energy

Tomorrows' sand dunes
from the dawning of time
with long fingers
clutched the stars
drew the floating dust
and held it by reef grass
and dung water trash

Echos in the well
hitting sidewalls
crashing like atoms
smashing like waves
on rocks hearlding
white noise calming conducive to gentle
jangled jitters
with tropical beaches
and hidden cabanas
Conchs hold the waves
