The Dragonflies'Lair~Tread LII
Poets of The Lair | May 1, 2008 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 04/30/2008 11:44:25 PM PDT by Soaring Feather





My Dragonfly 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...

Good morning everyone!


A Something in a Summer's Day
- Emily Dickinson,


"A something in a summer's Day
As slow her flambeaux burn away
Which solemnizes me.


A something in a summer's noon --
A depth -- an Azure -- a perfume --
Transcending ecstasy.


And still within a summer's night
A something so transporting bright
I clap my hands to see --


Then veil my too inspecting face
Lets such a subtle -- shimmering grace
Flutter too far for me --


The wizard fingers never rest --
The purple brook within the breast
Still chafes it narrow bed --


Still rears the East her amber Flag --
Guides still the sun along the Crag
His Caravan of Red --


So looking on -- the night -- the morn
Conclude the wonder gay --
And I meet, coming thro' the dews
Another summer's Day!"

From your heart give God your praise
For His blessings all your days;
Lift your voice to God above—
God of mercy, God of love. —Hess

Wishing You A Blessed Lord's Day

Thanks, I just love Wisteria! Wish I had an old shed, I would plant one and let it take over the shed.

There is something so beautiful about a woodbine!
