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 YELLOW FLOWER
A yellow flower—brave 'though a bit shy
wanted so badly to jump up and fly.
His wish was bigger than all other things
and one day he grew two small yellow wings.
He got colored spots that gave him power—
a butterfly's born out of the flower.
A blue flower now wants to jump and fly
but somehow he can't—he still wonders why.
His wish might not be as big as the sky
or he just cannot be a butterfly.
What the planet would look like—a bird sings—
if all the flowers got butterfly wings?

Well, I had a killer charley horse in the middle of the night, right down the front of my leg, almost cried it hurt so bad.
Don’t give me any grief!
