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...

Thank you for all the lovely poetry!

[Lady Jag]

It took a while to get those two together. I had the bridge, it was finding a poem to go with it.

[Soaring Feather]

You’re welcome, Meg, this flower frame is superb!

[Soaring Feather]

You always take the time to select the perfect poem to go with the graphic. We appreciate that so much.

[WayzataJOHNN]

reminds me of a kid in my 4th grade class, even the hair matches. He became a used car salesman, so its not a total surprise.

[Soaring Feather]

LOL, isn’t that graphic a hoot?? I love it! It’s so Lady Jag.

[Soaring Feather]

Goodnight everyone,
Dream a little~Love a lot....

[WayzataJOHNN]

“LOL, isn’t that graphic a hoot?? I love it! It’s so Lady Jag.”

Come on now, I will bet you cash money she doesn’t look like that! Fact is she’s likely a hot fox, built like a sailor’s dream, owns a liquor store, and would love my cooking!

[WayzataJOHNN]

Well, if everyone is asleep, I’m gonna go write another chapter in the book.

The Darker Half

Black dragons fly
the ancient worms
winged heralds of Fate’s will
hoarding the gold of its kill
that is always its terms
for it owns the sky

Made from magic gone awry
its purpose lost over the age
its has become a thing of its own
living and dying a thing alone
a titanic inferno of rage
until it accepts to die

Long lived beast of lore
hunted, hunting the night sky
extracting its terrible needs from the land
until the day it succumbs to another’s hand

Sad the life it lives to lose
the history its lived through
and sadder still that it has to be killed
for it needs its hot rage sated fulfilled
so the old task is still to do
by any means or by any ruse

We bring it with us you know
for it resides with us as always
one a mirrored part of the other’s fate of old
and blessed we’ve had our share of heroes bold
until the end of of all the days
so our shared fates will go
