The Dragonflies' Lair~Thread XLVII
The Poets of The Lair | January 31, 2008 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 01/31/2008 7:59:38 PM PST by 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 poem from my "voices":

 

It's winter in Illinois 
And the gentle breezes blow
Seventy miles an hour 
At twenty-five below.
Oh, how I love Illinois 
When the snow's up to your butt 
You take a breath of winter
And your nose gets frozen shut. 
Yes, the weather here is wonderful 
So I guess I'll hang around 
I could never leave Illinois
'Cause I'm frozen to the ground!!

Love the poem. It reminds me of the time that I went to boot camp at Great Lakes in January 1958.

How’d ya know? Yup, we even had steam rooms to dry our clothes after they were washed. Of course the clothes had to be hung on the clothes line with clothes-stops that were tied in a square knot.
