~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XX
May 8, 2005 | bentfeather Poets of the Lair

Posted on 05/08/2005 8:31:59 PM PDT 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...

Soft the touch of your hand
as soft as your lips so sweet
and I envision both in dreamland
treasures that come and go so fleet

Would I could sample them for real
at leisure's pace to my content
for I might then truly know the feel
oh for such a wonder truly fate sent

so soft the sound of the voice
that I listened twice to hear
the gentle beating of the wings
as he flew near
the Black Jewel of the night
my dragonfly delight

Such promise was made in old
of summer nights and flights
of gold and shimmering and
sparkling things as they glide
through the grey mist

the beauty of the flight
mesmerized all that saw
the wonderful dragonfly pair
she the Fae holding on dear
to the gossamer wings he held to her
he held to her with a touch of iron
from the meshed and glittering wings
and whispered in her ear the wondrous
things she longed to hear

that he did love her above all others
until the end of time
and beyond the realm of new born stars
and galaxies spanning
in the universal nursery hatching.

he whispered his sweet love for her
his adoration to be near
his loving other starhalf
lasting to the end of time
forever and ever just the two
star walking would they go

Meadow Magic

Dragonfly, Dragonfly,
master of the meadow’s skies,
mastered by her Fairy eyes,
and will be till the day he must die.

Wild and free, he is hers all the same,
as she to him by love’s chains aglow,
each are but half of a magic show,
part of ancient mythology in name.

Their time in this realm is short,
and so live to the fullest that they can,
both are rare and living jewels to scan,
yet invisible, for such is their sort.

Soaring over meadows in silent flight,
slipping amid trees in the deep wood,
they fly together as myths should,
for together they are magic so right.

Who am I?


Immortal Lament

In stygian dark I wait here,
for night is my world.

Darkness holds no fear,
for I am High Lord so old.

Even in darkness, I see all,
and hear all, remembering.

Here dreams are for dismembering,
such is night’s reason and call.

In my ancient task I’ve grown cold
as the space between the stars so dear.

My life is now in darkness curled,
and my soul is stripped of love I fear.

GOOD MORNING!


As the day gleams under the shining sun
May you too glow with health this day
And set your own feet upon the way
To eve, and hearth, and life's fun

Share this single day with others, friend
A priceless treasure beyond gold or jewel
Each but once it comes around, fate's tool
And you have it all to live, and lend.
