The Dragonflies'Lair ~ Thread LV ~ Anniversary Thread
Poets of the Lair | August 1, 2008 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 08/01/2008 6:23:53 AM 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...

There might be a couple more you'll want to tape up.

LOL - I LOVE that! That will be Monday’s bumper sticker. We’re off for Labor Day tomorrow. Yes, we’re doing it a little differently from the U.S. ;-)

Greetings,

The Dragonflies’Lair, has been my pride and joy for five years, however, after pondering over the last year of whether to continue, or close, it is my decision to close.

We are no longer a vibrant poetry thread, thus my conclusion to close. Poetry threads ebb and wane, this is the case for The Dragonflies’Lair.

Thank you, all for your support and contributions to The Lair. I wish for my dream to die a graceful death and it shall be so. This was not an easy decision to arrive at, but it is the correct decision.

I will be leaving FR with this last action of closing The Lair.

Thank You, I wish happiness for you all.

Good morning, Ms Feather!

 

Although you had informed me early this month of your intentions of closing the doors of the Dragonflies’Lair, I had hoped you would have changed your mind.

I guess not.

 

Thank you for all you have done, & may God bless you!

Your friend,TomKow6

Journey's End
 
  In western lands beneath the Sun
The flowers may rise in Spring,
The trees may bud, the waters run,
The merry finches sing.
Or there maybe 'tis cloudless night,
And swaying branches bear
The Elven-stars as jewels white
Amid their branching hair.

Though here at journey's end I lie
In darkness buried deep,
Beyond all towers strong and high,
Beyond all mountains steep,
Above all shadows rides the Sun
And Stars for ever dwell:
I will not say the Day is done,
Nor bid the Stars farewell.

JRR Tolkien
