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 guide
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...

Midsummer's Night
fireflies in flight
misty magic dew
the color of honeydew
tiny faeries in the air
blinking blinking everywhere
oh the madness here and there
Midsummer's serendipity
dusting wings oh the madness
of the things
kisses frozen
in outer space fall to earth
plant the place in harmony's
white robes....
of lovers in this land foretold
The Magic Kingdom of the Bold
and Lonely Star Walkers of old...

On the moor
they stood til dawn
listening for haunting yawn
of the King of Glenn Gaul Way
By day all was quiet
in the land of romp and riot
til the night did give away
to the Ghosts of Glenn Gaul Way

Near the bay in the fog
the little gnomes did stomp
the cloggers dance
under mandrake leaves
spread wide did the little
creatures hide

For in the night they did abide
in the gossamer side of the
lonely yum yum tree...
in the Glenn Gaul Way Bay.....

Good nite poets

May the sweet aroma of Lily of the Valley
fill your dreams
caress your face
tenderly lull you to sleep
in the safety of knowing love...

~ Dream a Little ~ Love a Lot ~

I remember the color your hair was...
the color of spiced rum
With memories of you
walking without me
in gentle oriental rain
Left me with dreams
of being lost in your embrace.
The peace in your eyes
shone through
I was lost, lost
in your eyes
..........lost
in your embrace...
Dreams of you at Indian Twilight...

Good morning everyone.

[Soaring Feather]

A yum yum tree is like a fairy , there ain't no such animal. :)

Morning, will be back in a bit.
T-storms rolling in.

Good morning, Lair!

To Memory
by Mary Elizabeth Coleridge

Strange Power, I know not what thou art,
Murderer or mistress of my heart.
I know I'd rather meet the blow
Of my most unrelenting foe
Than live---as now I live---to be
Slain twenty times a day by thee.

Yet, when I would command thee hence,
Thou mockest at the vain pretence,
Murmuring in mine ear a song
Once loved, alas! forgotten long;
And on my brow I feel a kiss
That I would rather die than miss.

[SAMWolf]

Good Morning Everybody.

A Blue World



Blue skies filled with hope,
Hearts filled with joy

A blue ocean of wonder,
Our love builds warmth

Eyes blue and sincere
Lovers who want only dreams

Blue stars burn to flames
As I look for the answer to my heart

Cold blue hands-
Warmed by a single touch.

Murmuring in mine ear a song
Once loved, alas! forgotten long;
And on my brow I feel a kiss
That I would rather die than miss.

Morning Colonel!!!!!

Love these lines. The "Midnight Whipsers" on MidSummers Eve, I have heard them.

Have a wonderful day. Raining here when I woke up to the day. Temps in the 60s, but high humidity.

Raining here when I woke up, but no T-storms. Be safe.
