~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XX
May 8, 2005 | bentfeather 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...

The Gift

Sleep, soft it comes on cat's paw feet
to wrap around you in softest caress,
and set you adrift on a dreamer's sea,
in a boat of your own memories sweet.

Images in colors and shapes so fleet,
brightly set as only dreams may dress,
come to show you all that just might be,
all you can dream waits on you to greet.

GOOD MORNING

Best way to start the day, a group poem!

I'll start, and everyone adds a verse.
Only rules, three line verse, and be SILLY!

Dawn, comes too soon,
and wakes me with glare,
knowing I'd rather sleep till noon!

I slept to noon one lonely day
the sun was not out there to play

so I stayed snuggled in the hay
and watched a spider spin a web

a silken pillow for my head.

I don't know, maybe I'm a sadist or something.


now to continue, (and that means any of you!)

Lazy moments filled my head
as I lay sleeping like a log
upon my ancient feather bed

hope I remember which turn along the hall

The hall was black there is no wall
I think I'll take a giant fall
into a huge and swirling black hole
