~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XVI~
November 6, 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 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...

Thank you, bentfeather!

FR is such a large place sometimes the best parts are overlooked.

I'll read awhile. I'm so glad to find this here!

Just 16? Light reading for those lonely mornings.
I'll wade in slowly and check depths as I go.

Good evening Ms. Feather!

Come, join me in my garden
And listen to its music...
Hear the blue jays twittering on the branches,
Long grass whispering in the breeze,
Water rippling over polished stones
And maple leaves rustling in the moonlight
While the wind chimes peal...

Come, join me in my garden
And enjoy the ballet...
See enchanted frogs leaping,
Soft cottontail bunnies hopping,
Delicate butterflies prancing
And evening shadows waltzing
While the angels fly...

Come, join me in my garden
And arrange a bouquet...
Gather lilacs in the springtime,
Fragrant roses in the summer,
Chrysanthemums in autumn
And mistletoe in winter
While the snowflakes fall...
Come, join me in my garden

And paint a picture...
Capture silver dewdrops on petals,
Golden moths on snapdragons,
Dusk settling on tall blue junipers
And fireflies colliding with fairy wings
While the lanterns glow...

Come, join me in my garden...

Meadow Again



Moon hangs, almost full
pieces of cloud scatter,
glide in soft, summer breeze.
We lay in our meadow
listening to the sound of night
her head nestled on my arm.

Night air made for kissing
dances upon our skin
chilling wherever is damp.
She stirs, quietly calls,
my name hangs on summer eve
floats about our meadow.

She sighs, moves closer
snuggling in, once again
her breath stirs, awakens.
Hands join in gentle caress
exploration shared and renewed
oh, so smooth and lovely.

We turn, lips meeting
slow, softly, delicate
building quickly to demand.
Crying out, beginning and end
collapsing, breathing ragged
moon hangs, slightly fuller.

Daniel James Burt

Good morning, Sam!


Whoa, Meadow Again!! I'm up!

Steaming up the Lair! Made me think of Trike!

I am loving Patti Labelle and Michael Bolton. Wonderful song.

Thanks for all Sam.

GM, darks!

Yes, she was pondering that last time we talked. I'm sure Darkchylde will work it out.

Maybe it's done?? Sometimes that happens.
