~The Dragon Flies' Lair Thread XI~
April 17, 2004 | bentfeather, and poets of the Dragon Flies' Lair

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...

To: Old Sarge

I will take your arm, and march you
over that forbidding rise,
and such things that you've
forgotten
will remind your starting eyes!

Love is gladness, o'er that hill,
pine-song in breezes, and rippling rill,
swaying grasses, birds in bowers,
Here: a small gift of words and flowers,
all for you.



This is lovely Sarge. Thank you. Very pretty prose indeed!

None to spare,
none to spare,
You will have to look
elsewhere.

LOL.

Writing backwards isn't going to give you anymore time either! ;-)

LOL! Very nice! (I think!?!)

I'm not good enough at this to keep the rythm going as I read, but I'm sure it takes even longer to type.

(I would have responded backward, but I have work to do.)

The light fills both lives
A beach is the edge of their one heart
The sky the cover of the naked
Excitement and delight
In giving


Very pretty selection. :-)

I don't even have any to steal! If you find someone that does let me know, I'll help and we can split it.
