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 day goes well
the poet breathes
the hope of spring
and rustling leaves
a robin’s chirp
in old brown leaves
a unbared belly of a worm
hot breakfast before decomposition
Velvet leaf covers hit the ground
a south wind encourages unfurling profound
in lush greenery mingled with flowering shrubs
the forsythia ready to burst in bloom
of golden yellow on creek banks and back yards.
In the woods the smell of life
rising from the piles of loam
the call of the jay along the path
with the cardinal well hidden in the pine
the glory of spring!

In you heart the words resided
it was another who put the pen to paper.
You have a beautiful heart.
To: Soaring Feather
That is a wonderful poem!!
It is so true, too! If it weren’t raining, I’d go out and cut some forsythia branches to force. Lilacs look about to burst, too.

The sun peeks through the window pane
to announce to the world it is a new day again,
the clouds have taken cover
as the sun sits there in a hover,
to brighten everyone's day
as they merrily go on their way.

Very nice, thank you.
I think as it looks now
the sun and snow flakes
are playing a guessing game
a little sun, a few flakes
makes for interesting weather.
To: Lady Jag
Thank You, Lady, it just rolled out all by itself.
To: Soaring Feather
What does the weather guesser predict?

I have avoided the weather channel today.
My bones say this, it’s danged cold and damp
out there, the wind chill is 32%, humidity is 100%,temp is 32F.
From the green area on the weather map, it ain’t good. ;(
To: Soaring Feather
I guess that you are going to have more snow.

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can
afford to be stupid with them.

Play detective and see if you can locate a video of the VA Tech speech just given by some professor/poet first name Nikki.
It was the best thing to happen on this sad occasion.

Amid the sun warmed grass
littered with laugher and life
all was shattered like a crystal goblet
once filled with life’s wine
now spilled in stark crimson
as rage and insanity
raced riot in marble abattoirs
Just one could have refused it to pass
one will and means to handle strife
but they were outlawed, so ill met
with ease across the line
the rage came swirling until done
it was able to come, to be
and in hindsight no answers seen from afar

To: Soaring Feather
Whisper words of sorrow
whisper words of grief
and whisper things left unsaid
But scream there will be no such tomorrows
scream defiance into the face of evil
and scream the promise to protect those not yet dead
A ‘gun free zone’ = A target rich environment with no threat to evil intentions.

And the dead will be buried
will we forget the senseless killing
of thirty three young lives?
The sun will continue to warm us
we will laugh again
but the parents of the dead ones
will slump a little lower in their chairs
at dusk, their brows more furrowed
and their hearts empty for the flesh of their flesh.
And the poets write in outrage at the utter waste of humanity.

Aren’t you the hoochie Mama today.

Helpless as sheep to the slaughter.

Hi Sweetie! Am I a hoochie Mama?? LOL
To: Soaring Feather
Your Good Morning Graphic is a little on the hoochie side.
Great Feather though.
