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...

Forgetting the Line of Time

The pages shift in memory of
happy times as kids
hunting down the rabbits
is what my brother did

Mom would make a pot of stew
we all would partake
and grateful for the meal we had
we bowed our heads in Grace.

We explored the creek than ran
through the pasture green
in Fall we’d fling those cow chips
a farmer’s, kid’s baseball
and if one got hit,
it was no fun at all.

We stepped on dried thistle heads
the pain was sharp and long
the old Burdock heads would cling
to clothes and hair and dog.

We walk the pasture with much care
looking for milkweed tall
oft times there would be a butterfly,
not yet fully formed
the green chrysalis, a marvel to be sure
a gift and wonder to behold
as nature did her work

and taught the chrysalis to be
a Monarch Butterfly.

Thank You, for the happy thoughts
it was a long dark night
I did sleep well it seems
but can’t remember my flight. ;0)

Wishing You A Blessed Lord's Day


Psalms 19:1-4
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the
work of his hands.
Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they
display knowledge.
There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard.
Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of
the world.
