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...

New Thread Everyone!!

Attraction

The meadow and the mountain with desire
...Gazed on each other, till a fierce unrest
...Surged 'neath the meadow's seemingly calm breast,
And all the mountain's fissures ran with fire.

A mighty river rolled between them there.
...What could the mountain do but gaze and burn?
...What could the meadow do but look and yearn,
And gem its bosom to conceal despair?

Their seething passion agitated space,
...Till lo! the lands a sudden earthquake shook,
...The river fled: the meadow leaped, and took
The leaning mountain in a close embrace.

Feather's song of joy
composed in her giving heart

I have always loved that Haiku.

One of my better ones, especially since I remember the context it was written in. :-)

The Rainbow And Real Fun

The weave of romance, friendship and love
Always alive, moving with the two
Their hopes and sharing
The strength and warmth
Each can give Each can be free
And then the play unfolds
When each can
Live for the other
Nurturing and inspiring
Only the problems unforgiven
Could end . . .

The rainbows and real fun
The times outdoor and flush
With each other and breezes
The light fills both lives
A beach is the edge of their one heart
The sky the cover of the naked
Excitement and delight
In giving
Giving
Giving
If it isn't giving
It isn't living

Wonderful poem all true.

Cheers!

I thought I’d talk today about, a FRiend I’ve come to know,
I’m sure you know which one I mean, he often steals the show.
He will be celebrating soon, we know, a rite that we regard,
As holy in the sight of God, even in one’s back yard.

I’m talking about marriage, and one particular Guy,
He would have done this long ago, if he were not so shy.
It is a sort of gem he found, specifically, a pearl,
He really isn’t royally, but he’ll become an Earl.

Yes, he’s walking well above the ground, for Laura has consented,
And if he screws things up this time, he’ll be the late lamented.
But I have confidence in him, he’s flown this high before,
Of course this is because of love, and that was playing war.

He’ll be much calmer soon, I think, and be his own sweet self,
(When she reflects upon her name, she will become an elf.)
And magic will be theirs, I’m sure, and hope it lasts real long,
For we all need a Guy like him, to cheer us with a song.

Nice poem NicknamedBob. Always fun to read poems that are "personalized" :-)

[Soaring Feather]

So wedding bells
will ring for the Guy
and Laura Earl will
be his bride

A Freeper wedding is the best
there won't be six thousand guests!!

Congrats to you and Laura, too!
Happy days I wish for you.
May you walk in sunshine all the way
and remember forgiveness is always best each day.
