The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread LI
The Poets of The Lair | April 2, 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 barren wasteland?

In a land of Cactus and sand
To some the scenery may look bland
One can see for miles across the plain
In a land that receives little rain

A walk out in the desert will reveal
Creatures of all sorts from sublime to surreal
Scorpions, lizards, spiders, birds of prey and snakes to mention a few
Many more can be listed that are seen at a zoo

The air is clean and the sky is blue
All the while, the sun beats down on you
Perspiration exudes from every pore
And your thirst continues to grow more and more

The longer in the sun you stay
Your mind conjures up images that are far away
For the uninitiated they have a compelling urge to go
To the image that they see in the sun’s glow

As they approach the image, they find
It is only a trick played by one’s mind
A trick that can be easily overcome
By having a water canteen to drink from

Be careful where you step as you walk along the way
For a misstep can ruin your day
And listen for noise of a rattling kind
That signals danger and you had better pay mind

Because a rattlesnake can give you a nasty bite
And caused some people to die of fright
But for all of the dangers seen far and wide
Lies a beauty that the desert shows with pride

NYA, this is wonderful, I like it. So this is what you did today, huh.

It was well spent. Nice images of the desert.

This will go on your page in The Anthology.

Been out wandering around here. For some reasson unbeknownst to me, I love the desert. I fell in love with the desert when I was in Iran and that feeling was amplified by my time in Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Kuwait. Maybe I have a case of the “Bridey Murphy” syndrome.

I saw the desert from the air in 2006 leaving Las Vegas, Gorgeous. I love the heat and the dry air. I sat outside in 104F temp. Loved it.

Weather for me was always something that I could adapt to easily.
