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...

Not feeling so great today, woke up before the chickens, laid back down for a while, so just going to take it easy today.

Only Esmeralda can come no stripped or stinky katzs.

[Soaring Feather]

Grey Citadel

It were an old barn, ancient even when I were a kid,
a grey castle we played in, safe from summer’s heat.
A creaking door that we imagined to be a coffin lid,
and we played hide and seek in the piled hay so sweet.

Just an old barn it were, but to us, a palace for we kings,
and many a knight like us rode forth on stick horses bold.
We rode around it, the trees our Sherwood’s leafy ring,
and never did we tire of our ancient wooden keep so old.

The seat of the old wagon within a king’s throne,
where lordly decisions were made with raised slat sword.
Our haven from the rain, where we might set the tone,
and hold court in the grey palace upon that dry grass sward.
