The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread LIV
The Poets of The Lair | July 1, 2008 | 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...

I showed that to a load of people and used it in my art class last term.

Have you been able to change her direction?

Yes - it rotates both ways for me. (Guess I’m ditzy - ‘cuz I’m not telling fibs and I’m certainly no genius!)

If you see the girl turning both ways:

You are a genius, (or telling fibs to impress your family and friends)

She mostly goes clockwise, but occasionally switches and goes counter-clockwise.

And I know I'm not a genius. ;-)

OK, I want to know what others are seeing.

I LOVE your framing! I just spend so much time cutting out things for gifs that I never have time to practice more on frames, lol.

Today it’s strictly counter clockwise..Last time I saw it it switched direction on me.

Most amazing! It’s interesting how you can get her to change direction by concentrating on watching her feet.

My reaction is the exact same as yours.....clockwise and then switches to counter-clockwise.

No genius here either.
