The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XXI~

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...

Hmmmm. Well, at least the Fridge stayed put. I guess the appliances just sit back and let the furniture do the dirty work, huh?

Yeah, the appliances wait for the furniture to rough me up and then.. THEN they start in.
Nothing like being buried alive under frozen peas...

I'll have to take your word for it. I have only ever been sideswiped by pasta.

The freezer and I have a 'special' relationship.
Goes back to having had frozen hamburger patties fly out at me in formation, and land on my foot.
Once that happened, everything else in there joined in.
Even the turkey.

LOL

You do have the oddest relationships I have ever read about. I suspect you have a lot in common with Harry Potter.

While I have never read a one of the books, I gather a lot of strange things go on in his life.

If my life weren't surreal, it would be beyond mundane.

Now that sounds like either mateerial for an epic story poem, or a darn good fireside book for a long winter's read!

The weird part of it: my life is surreal but to me it is extremely boring.
And illustration, in a way, of how relative perceptions are.

To you it might well be boring, you were there, been there so long that it doesn't seem interesting. Now to an outside viewpoint, you could be a great book!

I know, it makes for some weird thoughts and philisophical introspection.

weird thoughts and philisophical introspections are the source of a lot of interesting books!

I'm not much of a writer.
The introspection leads to headaches which lead to odd inspiration which leads to demented poetry or odd drawings.
For some odd reason ther i s aconnection between my headaches and my inspiration.

Hello! Welcome to The Dragon Flies' Lair.

Thank you. I was looking for Darks. Found him here. I never tried to write poetry but I do enjoy reading it.
