The Dragonflies' Lair~Thread XXXXI

[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...

LOL...Good Morning...

Loved your poem and wonderful graphic.

[Lady Jag]

Good afternoon! How are you feeling today? Still on the upswing? Not stalled, I hope.

[Lady Jag]

Thanks but I’m just trying look halfway decent next to the MEGGERS.

:-)

[MEG33]

;o)
I should save that poem to read to my “future” great grandchildren..Delightful.

[Lady Jag]

It’s perfect for kids of any age.

[MEG33]

Indeed...This “kid” loved it.

[Soaring Feather]

Hanging in there so to speak, thanks. Felt like a floor mat yesterday, tired out, had to start up the blood thinner two nights ago. Have a little more pep today.

[Lady Jag]

Slow up so you can catch up with yourself. We want to preserve our Soaring Feather.

Good morning everyone.


A Dream within a dream


Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow--
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.


I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand--
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep--while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?


- Edgar Allan Poe
