~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XIV~
July 23, 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...

Yeah. New thread. I want to write but my brain is fried. LOL. We're busier than ever and it's hotter than ever. I still enjoy popping in though when I can.

Nice poem. Good music. I like the few songs I know of Paul Young, "Everytime you go away, you take a piece of me with you". Good line.

Julie London - Misty

 

Look at me
I’m as helpless as a kitten
Up a tree
And I feel like
I’m Hanging from a cloud
I can’t understand
I get misty
Just holding your hand

Walk my way
And a thousand violins begin to play
Or it might be the sound of your hello
This magic I hear
I get misty
The moment you’re near

You could say that you’re leading me on
But it’s just what I want you to do
Can’t you see just how hopelessly I’m drawn
That’s why I’m following you

On my own
Would I wander through this wonderland alone
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove
I get misty
And too much in love

On my own
Would I wander through this wonderland alone
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat and my glove
I get misty
And too much in love

Look at me

Well, love to have you here when you can make it. I know about wanting to write, but the brain can't make it happen. That's a tough one.

Yep. There is some stuff in there trying to get out but it keeps mingling with all the other things I need to do and think about. It's a jumbled mess right now. LOL.

That happens to me, too. Especially when I have to do design work and a poem wants out. :-)

Like now. :-(

So how is the book coming? It's nearly 80 and not even 10:30 yet. I think I'll drink something cool and rest in front of the fan. Maybe something will come to me besides fried eggs on the blacktop.

Just got back for doing errands. You know dreaded grocery shopping, banking, bought a new battery for my cordless phone to the tune of $15.00-had to go to 3 places to find that. Sheeeesh. K-Mart where the phone was bought did not have batteries.

Hiya Sarge. Kinda pooped from errands, we will do a dance later on if you're around. Okay? Gorgeous day here-just perfect.

Hi Darks. Hey, would you post your self portrait again? We should have it on each thread. Okay?

Oh sorry snippy, you asked about the book. Well, I am waiting for the galley proof to come. Other than that I have not heard. I would kind of like to compete again this year but don't think I will. I have another winner.

Welcome.
Admittedly, I sized it down.
The original scan spans 262 by 566 pixels.
