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...

It’s still rocking in Chino Hills but overall it’s been downgraded to 5.4.

They don’t use the Richter anymore. It’s the Fujita now and I haven’t looked that up and am unfamiliar with it.

Thought the Fujita scale was for storms of some sort?

(...at least, that's what one of my "voices" is telling me & I DON'T wanna get in an argument with them today...)

Blade Dance

Figures advance in studied quiet ease
upon a path to Edo under green trees
Recognition, fate intervenes swift as wind
now only courage and speed’s whirlwind

Whisper swift, a flash, a sundering sigh
as someone wins and someone must die
Razored inner spirit, iron core to steel soul
and fate’s martial action’s take their toll

Forged steel patiently hammer shaped
amid fiery furnace and fate dark draped
Demon edge shaped by the polishing art
to shear armor and pierce evil’s heart

Patterned steps and movements swift
as blades dive and slip and swiftly lift
Skill is the judge and cruel it will be
all too fast ad final for one to really see

Practiced swing to clear the blade clean
a sheathing pass, the steel soul now unseen
A figure dressed in dark robes turns to go
as time begins again and starts now to flow

On the ground a somber silent figure lies
clawed hands grasping dirt as life flies
Fate feasts on the past moment’s madness
and one becomes more and the other less

Well, I will say this, when I was in New Orleans around the French Quarter where the old slave market was, I felt the place humming.
