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...

"I am a Former US Army Infantryman. An 11B, but am NOT a Nam Vet. Was born in 1964."
Well, old son, you served, and that makes you a hero in my eyes! As one Vet to another, well done, and welcome home.
To: MNJohnnie
Hi MNJohnnie, thanks for clearing that up, but you are former Military and that's what counts.

deafening silence
dark places big holes
timeless time catapulting bentfeather
abandoned by love
empty of fruitful passion
silence fills my heart

The mouse does not seek,
To own the place he lives in,
Just to skip the rent.
Cat watches the hole,
Murder is not the motive,
Someone has to pay.

hungry kitty cat
stomach growls piteously
food is the motive

Truly, Feather, that rocks on three levels.
you took the music
left me with a hollow drum
beating for a heart
Emotional, visual, and artistic.
Wow! You have layers!
