~The Dragon Flies' Lair V~
November 25, 2003 | bentfeather

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...

Zephyr wishing
Sandy beach kissing
Spoonbill blushing
Water rushing
Longing ebbing tides

By bentfeather

Warm rain tenderly falls upon
your tussled hair
Zephyr winds kiss you dry
I loved you so....

By bentfeather

Cold Days of Winter bleak, stark, barren I miss you most...
the earth sleeps and I unmoved
to feel the emptiness weighing on me.
Why did you go?
Moon light echos desolate days and nights
of your going
Star light punctuates the vastness of the void

By bentfeather

Glitter dome rides
in Milky way Galaxies
Riotous Romp

By bentfeather

Stolen kisses in shadows
memories held between glass
passionate scenes held in tropical gardens...
full moon waxing beyond blush
sighing winds hush
surf laughingly
returning to deep seas

By bentfeather

Painted on my heart .....
in my mind the warmth of you
tropical beaches
stolen walks...
lovers holding passion at bay
winds changed,
blew ill another face painted in you
you walked away...
She held more sway...

I've never doubted you. I know better than that, and besides, people would be most angry with me. ;)

I am Helga the Barbarian
the old blood of ancient Vikings
runs through my veins
the old spirits haunt Old Seneca blood
mixes with Viking genes
sing songs of old times
I am bentfeather the poet of the stars
and warm loving nights
I am bentfeather who embraces all of God's creation
and I live out amoung the stars!
I am bentfeather the poet by the Grace of God
alive and singing

I AM
bentfeather the poet!

Lighting Candles At Twilight and Dawn

I lit a candle in the sanctuary of my soul
it flickers nearly out,
yet, holds to the fire that is me,
it lives where prying eyes
have no entrance into
the sanctuary where deafening,
shrill, jangling sounds of silence
are the wretched hauntings of
lighting candles alone
between twilight and dawn...

Dreams



in my dreams you are with me
happy content peaceful
and we are alone
there is never anyone else when i dream of you
i have you all to myself
i have your undivided attention
as we move slowly as on air
entangled in each other drifting
but never apart, always together
always touching
and the look in your eyes is as though
you want me and only me
in my dreams

Where prying eyes have no entrance... Cool!

I like that.

Roy Orbison Song Lyrics

In dreams, I walk, with you.
In dreams, I talk, to you.
In dreams, you're mine, all the time.
Living forever, in dreams, in dreams.
But just, before, the dawn.
I awake, and find, you gone.
I can't help it, I can't help it.
If I cry.
I remember, that you said.
Goodbye.

I was thinking about your poem Dreams.

It's a very good poem and the dream like graphic intensifies the text.

found the whole thing.

In Dreams

Artist: Roy Orbison (peak Billboard position # 7 in 1963)
Words and Music by Roy Orbison

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle star dust and to whisper
“Go to sleep, everything is all right”

I close my eyes then I drift away
Into the magic night, I softly say
A silent prayer like dreamers do
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you

In dreams I walk with you
In dreams I talk to you
In dreams you’re mine all the time
We’re together in dreams, in dreams

But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I can’t help it, I can’t help it if I cry
I remember that you said goodbye

Too bad it only seems
It only happens in my dreams
Only in dreams
In beautiful dreams.

Thanks. Good song by Roy. How about this one;

Everly Brothers

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam

I like to sing the harmony rather than the lead but I can be Phil or Don and love the song.

Today is our SAM's Birthday. Some of you may not have seen SAM's work. SAM writes Haiku and is very skilled at it.
I give you SAM and bentfeather doing some dancing.

heavy burden
holding the world's snowfall
on soft pine branches

************
Silent city roads.
Night. Heavy with snow, pines lean
Toward sole travelers.

SAMWolf

************

Lone wolf walks silently
in soft snows
he is away
from city roads...
narrow high ground
calls lone wolf
owl watches from
naked branch
sole travelers
still....while eying
one another...

By bentfeather

************

Wilderness leader
sends his howl into the night
magnificent Wolf

By SAMWolf

************

Magnificent Wolf
has one mate?
Sends his howl
luring her back
Wilderness leader
needs to walk in twos

By bentfeather

************

As snow lightly falls
Bentfeather dances with wolf
Poetry Dances

By SAMWolf

************

Poets teach
Anthology grows by one
A wolf learns to dance

************
