~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...

Hello LunaRed. I'm glad you found your way to feather's place.

My muse has been missing for sometime now but hopefully it will return soon.

Good morning, Lair! Happy Tuesday to everyone and a welcome to LunaRed!

That Wind I Used to Hear it Swelling
Emily Jane Brontë

That wind I used to hear it swelling
With joy divinely deep
You might have seen my hot tears welling
But rapture made me weep

I used to love on winter nights
To lie and dream alone
Of all the hopes and real delights
My early years had known

And oh above the rest of those
That coming time should [bear]
Like heaven's own glorious stars they rose
Still beaming bright and fair

Like Snowflakes



Like snowflakes
floating gently,
unexpectedly
to earth,
small kindnesses
touch our lives.

First one, and then another
and another,
until at last the world is
bright and shining
with goodwill.
And once again...

its Christmas

A Bucket of Daffodils

I have a bucket of daffodils tall
yellow in Spring brown in Fall
a wooden tub of Pansy faces
grace the garden in many places
Johnny Jump Up covers the lawn
Fiddle Head Fern from dusk to dawn
Tall old fashioned Day Lilies nestle
close to Bird Bath near a thistle
I go into the back yard
to listen for a Cardinal's whistle...
