The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread XLVI
Poets of The Dragonflies'Lair | January 04,2008 | 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...

Snow
 
  Walking through a field with my little brother Seth

I pointed to a place where kids had made angels in the snow.
For some reason, I told him that a troop of angels
had been shot and dissolved when they hit the ground.

He asked who had shot them and I said a farmer.


Then we were on the roof of the lake.
The ice looked like a photograph of water.

Why he asked. Why did he shoot them.

I didn't know where I was going with this.

They were on his property, I said.


When it's snowing, the outdoors seem like a room.

Today I traded hellos with my neighbor.
Our voices hung close in the new acoustics.
A room with the walls blasted to shreds and falling.

We returned to our shoveling, working side by side in silence.


But why were they on his property, he asked.

WJ, I think you can go 600X600 on some of those pics.

They are nice pics, but compressed a little too, much.

WJ as an example: this pic is Wide 480PX by Height 309PX. The PX is pixels.
Sooo my point is 600X600 is not huge.

and this is the same woman that would loudly complain when shopping at Macy’s for makeup, I would tell her to make sure that she got the kind with industrial strength Retina A. Also, she took a real offense about the comment of wrinkled pantyhose when she wasn’t wearing any.

I was only trying to be helpful. After all, she didn’t allow me to have my beer. I am sure that the beer would have made a huge difference in her appearance.

I mean the wrinkled pantyhose when she was not wearing any was right over the top!

Absolutely! We would we lie? Next time I won’t be baited with the question “Does this dress make me look fat?” Like Bo Diddly sang in “Shake, Rattle and Roll” I would reply “I can’t believe my eyes all that mess belongs to you”.
