The Dragonflies' Lair~Thread XXXXI
Poets of the Dragonflies' Lair | August 9, 2007 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 08/06/2007 3:44:50 AM PDT by Soaring Feather





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 have spent the afternoon with a dear friend who lost her hubby and good buddy of forty years, yesterday. We talked of our friend, of his unassuming persona, his beaming smile, and his love of life. We all will miss him, but her sadness is far greater.

I have been asked to write his obituary which I will do with honor.

I found this beautiful summer poem and thought it might help make your day.
It did me, and it's very well written.


ENJOY!

"Summer" 
a poem by Abigail Elizabeth McIntyre



HELL, It's HOT!
