~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...

Gee thanks! I really like that song a lot

Im surprised you found it that readily.

I was lucky enought to meet all those guys, they all spent the night at a friends house after performing in sandiego.

L0L had my friend not been raised in england it would have never happened. I was quite an evening

Wow! That is a bonus!

Great song, the synthesizers seem a bit dated nowadays

I guess thats why the band split, Karl Wallinger was kind of Taking over the sound there for a while. Still a good song with great lyrics. The good news is that after 10 years Mike Scott and the rest of the guys are back without Karl L0L

Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the
universe, a moment that will never be again. And what
do we teach our children? We teach them that two and
two make four, and that Paris is the capital of France.
When will we also teach them what they are?

We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are?
You are a marvel. You are unique. In all the years that
have passed, there has never been another child like you.
Your legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way you move.

You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven.
You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel.
And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is,
like you, a marvel?

You must work, we must all work, to make the world worthy
of its children.
--Pablo Casals (1876-1973)

Ice Patterns

Like sprays of Pompous Grass
patterns of ice on glass
frozen condensation
nature's splendorous
brush painted windows
with white, lite grass...
in silence of night...
