The Dragonflies' Lair ~ Thread XXXX~
Soaring Feather and poets of the Lair | July 6, 2007 | Soaring Feather

My Dragonfly 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...

As Dusk Settles on a Wanderer

I wander, and pause to sit and lean back at rest
looking up at stars that are a wonder to me
are they some celestial connect-a-dot I see
or a map to some eternal plane, a life test

I have seen so much of this world, and dreamed on
until I find that so very often dreams and reality
are but two side of the same ancient coin you see
something we miss at the break of another dawn

Great truths and small facts balance the scales of time
and only fate knows the tipping point to come
a surprise to us all in the end even for king or bum
set to an eternal metronome that paces rhyme

Each day another mile marker along the convoluted way
and we take the path that often looks the easiest, not the best
so the story become complex at the very least, so rest
tomorrow another hill to climb, a chance to stray

Good morning ladies. Chef Tude has been busy preparing this morning’s virtual breakfast. By request from MEG33 the main item is: Raspberry Crepe Suzettes, eggs any style, Texas sized potato crisps, bacon, sausage, grits, cinnamon sticky buns and plenty of Columbian coffee. Additionally, there is white powdered sugar for the Crepes, salt, pepper, ketchup and Tabasco sauce for those that like to spice things up.
Bon Appetit!

What a lovely thing to say..
I want to go walking in your woods...but first I must go shake a stick at the squirrel that just jumped up on the tube feeder!

Thanks Meg, but it is true. I wish I could post frames in our anthology, however, their system does not allow to mix html with their software. ;(

Oh pesky squirrel, freeloader for seed. ;)

Freeloaders indeed! They have gotten so fearless that twice lately I have walked right up to the one busy draining the feeder..cheeky! This time I just had to open the door.

Beautiful painting. It’s reminiscent of the French Impressionists.
