~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XVI~
November 6, 2004 | bentfeather and Poets of the Lair

Posted on 11/06/2004 8:40:53 PM PST by Soaring Feather

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 me...

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...

Planet Parade



Amazing Mercury is closest to the Sun.
Hot, hot Venus is the second one.
Earth comes third, it's not too hot.
Freezing Mars awaits an astronaut.
Jupiter is bigger than all the rest.
Sixth comes Saturn, its rings look best!
Uranus and Neptune are big gas balls.
Tiny Pluto is the last planet of all.

Lovely snippy! It's good to have you writing again.

That was just off the top of my head responding to Darksheare's tease. I wish I had more time but a roof over my head is top of the list right now. ;-)

Good music these past few days Sam, thanks. I don't have a sound card or speakers at work so I had to listen to three days worth just today, it was all good.

I'll have to talk to my boss about some speakers and sound. ;-)

Calendar



To find with you the earliest
Willow-buds before their silver turns to gold,
And the first previous buttercup and cyclamen that blossom
Ere the leaflets of the vernal trees unfold;
To lie with you in June
Beneath a broad magnolia-scented moon,
And under stars and meteors of late summer;
To see with you
The goldenrod become an ashen ghost
And the rose of autumn crumble
And the leaf put on the splendor of the rose,

And the last leaf fall upon the wintry blue
In a wind from the lofty snows;
To sit with you beside the murmuring fire
When a stifled sunset dies,
And watch through misty panes
The boughs that toss upon a winter-driven sky
And the swift eternal slanting of dark rains:

These are my seasons,
This is my calendar,
Where love appoints the course of many a sun and star;
And, wanting you, I should not care nor know
If it were the time of falling jasmine-petals Or the time of falling snow.

Clark Ashton Smith

Sam,


A most precious poem this morning. Gorgeous graphic, too.

Thanks to you, for all you give us.

Enjoy your day - I know you're going to be working in the store.

I'll come around with coffee and pie in the afternoon.
