~The Dragon Flies' Lair~XVII~
January 9, 2005 | bentfeather and Poets of The Lair

Posted on 01/09/2005 4:58:38 AM 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...

Hi Dave,

Sorry you have been ill. Resting is the best thing you can do.

Glad you got here for a few minutes anyway.

Take care.

SURVIVEING in a changing world..... When life is full and happy I enjoy it completely. When I am burdened and sad, I have learned how to compensate. I never allow myself to be without a project, challenge or the simple tasks of life. If ever I retreat; I make myself take two steeps forward. I strive always to keep my thoughts positive even in a negative situation. Most important; I keep my communications open with God.

A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal



A slumber did my spirit seal;
I had no human fears;
She seemed a thing that could not feel
The touch of earthly years.

No motion has she now, no force;
She neither hears nor sees;
Rolled round in earth's diurnal course,
With rocks, and stones, and trees. .

William Wordsworth

SOCIAL PARAMETICS NEEDED.....Where are the the days of elegance; when formal meant men in suite's and girls in long flowing dresses. Gloves and flowers and dancers flowing. In just 40 years, (Vanished) The youth of today wear jeans, tattoos, and strange body piercing. The music doesn't flow;it jerks and breakes the ear drum. The dancers don't sway but rather seem to be convulsing.LOL

Thank you Ms. Feather. I too got to see a bit of the prayer service this morning. All of the Inauguration proceedings that I have been able to watch were outstanding.

I hope you have a good day too!

"I Have A Handle On the Situation"



I have a handle on the situation.
I have a handle on my space and contents.
My vacant hollow.
Or the items of which I house a dozen odds and ends.
I always know what I possess or what may be un-there or missing.
To study my physiognomy, one might think not much or lacking.
But closer on inspection, I am near divine and worthy of great travels.
A true companion of love and comfort, recognition, the familiar.
I have been held in such a clutch and such a love storm
by my mistress and her values.
She takes me abroad a thousand footsteps, always holding on and never once ignoring.

Mostly I am there to steady, to balance her or witness.
She sometimes shuffles through my soul in search of needy things,
like painted sticks and looking glasses of which I keep most dear.
She searches inward and there she looks inside my sacred space.
Full of painted stick and looking glasses,
I am my lady's handbag. .

David Roby

49 HOURS.....From love we made in winters song, entwined within each others arms, safe from harm; into the agony of labor long defined by summer storm and thunder.O' suddenly the healthy cry of charm; such joy to hold our wonder of my first born in my arms.
