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...

A little pansy face I see
sticking out her tongue at me
laughing at the thought of snow
not on her plot of land you know!

Pansy land, a place to be
all those little faces I see
frolicking in the Pansy Plot
a land I wish I had not forgot!


Thank You, Meg, for letting me play in your garden.

Well, now Tom, seems your can of lard has become a Logo for The Lair. And the great thing is we don’t have to refrigerate it. ;0)

So how cold are you??

Good grief! That’s the time I got up today, but it’s not a “normal” time for me. My sleep patterns have gone wobbly again, that is normal for me.
