~The Dragon Flies Lair II~

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 guides we would dip and we would glide through the heavens open wide and scatter diamonds in the night sky my Dragon Fly and I...

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...

Don't go there. It is like being at a Clinton Orgy.

Thank you for the prayer ping feather for SAM's dad.

You think SAM won't be here...Now feather, you know "our" SAM is one tough cookie (albeit soft on the inside) and he'll be here no doubt. Not that we wouldn't mind if he wasn't able but I think he will cuz everything is going to be okay.

I'm hoping by the time SAM wakes up his Dad will already be in the recovery room after successful back surgery and on his way to perfect healing.

I'm confident and optimistic this morning that all will be well!

It's interesting, never saw it before in poetry.
Guess that's because poetry and other creative talents aren't a high priority in school anymore?

Thank you snippy. I know our Sam is a tough guy, but has a heart of gold. We are so fortunate to have guys like SAM, Darksheare and Flurry in the Lair having tender hearts. If I missed anyone it was not intentional.

Poets are the very best of the people, IMHO.

While You Were Sleeping



While you were sleeping,
I sat by your bed.
I watched you
as you smiled through your dreams.

I traced your perfect shell ear,
Touched every curl
On your little head.

I tried to sleep
But the sound of your breathing
Drew me back to your room.

I couldn't resist
The magic which tugged
At my heartstrings
And brought me to your side.

I settled on the floor
Once again.
Back against the wall,
Holding your tiny hand in mine.

While you were sleeping
I fell in love with you all over again.

Tara Simms

Smoke from a distant fire, in my room I'm gonna make you love me, forever and ever Amen.

LOL! Hey it's a stretch but I couldn't resist tying all of today's titles together. All good songs today.

Thanks SAM, music, donuts, coffee and good company at the Lair.

His Arms

My friend found
my heart could sing his
thoughts and his
arms understand my
laughing was
soft love...
