~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XIII~
June 13, 2004 | bentfeather and Poets of The 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 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...

Deep beginnings like coolness
tumble through swaying grasses...

I settle in love...methodically
peeling parched green from silky wood

Illusion

When illusion becomes delicious desire
a metamorphose occurs...
a loving existence found thoughts
echoing life...

Joys



A brilliant sunset,
A butterfly,
A quiet evening,
A cloudless sky.

A moonlit night,
A Christmas morn,
A birthday party,
A baby born.

A robin's song,
An apple pie,
A cup of coffee,
A lullaby.

A newborn kitten,
A breaking dawn,
A springtime picnic,
A fresh cut lawn.

A wedding day,
A daffodil,
A snowy peak,
A rolling hill.

Be the joy great or small: fleeting or without end.
All life's joys are doubled, when shared with you, my friend.

Misty Mischelle Snyder

Hi Sam, nice poem today. It's all about the little things that are there in our lives, and often overlooked.

Listening to the tunes now. Thanks for Breakfast, poetry and tunes.

The little things are most often the best, we just don't always remember that. :-)

WHY I LOVE MY COUNTRY


I love her magnificent majesty
Her colors: RED, WHITE and BLUE
from her mighty mountain peaks
to her delta lows
and the way her mighty rivers flow
Her frozen land of glaciers
to her deserts barren and cold
I love my mighty county
on whose rocky roads I've run
I love her Pride and Pomp
I love her patience not to tromp
I love her freedom, she lets me be me
with responsibility
and the SISU to pay the dues
to take care of me at all times, but
should I need a hand,
she is grand and lends a hand up
-not a hand out
She said, I could have an education
that I would have to work for it
no one would hand me my grades
It's a prudent decision she has made...

I love her, because I can run 
through the roses at three am
and dream of faraway lands
Be happy in my skin
Oh, yes, I love my homeland
She is Grand!!!
