The Dragonflies'Lair ~ Thread ~ XXXXII
Poets of The Lair | September 11, 2007 | Soaring Feather

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...

Now I didn’t say I was one of those sailors who had problems keeping their pants on at time and in places sure to cause problems, but I might have shaved one particular cuss who did.

As an old boy from the high country of Montana, I often miss the mountains of my youth. In today’s world, more so.

Breathe deep the crisp cool air of the highland
clear and clean of man’s clustered touch to defile
where a eagle on strong wings flies free and wild
and life is hard, but true, where mediocrity is banned

I love this poem.

I just watched the movie, "A River Runs Through It". A most wonderful movie.Have you seen it Johnn? You would enjoy this movie.

Absolutely, they are all fine specimens. ;0) I saw a cat picture in the paper today for adoption, tug, tug, on my heart strings.

“My brother was a Sailor, too. Oy!”

Then you understand how a situation can be misconstrued, and a poor unfortunate fellow could be thought a trouble maker, socially unfit, or cheap and easy.

Nope, but I will certainly check it out on my netflix order and see it soon. Thanks for the heads up on it.
