~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XII~
May 14, 2004 | bentfeather and poets of The Lair

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 guide
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...

I rolled out very late and I am ashamed of myself for it.

Mom would not approve. LOL

I have a picture of me somewhere sitting on a street name sign after one of those storms.

Interesting choice of music today. I'd never heard any of them before. Well I have heard of "Good Golly Miss Molly" but not by CCR.

Thanks for the tunes each day. :-)

I like these poems you are leaving us from Teasdale. Not being a student of poetry save for on English Lit class I had never heard of her until you started sharing her with us at the Lair. Thanks.

Sewer trouble. Oh no Colonel, I missed this one. Did this happen in your new house? Your beautiful den with the new furniture? How awful. Cute poetry though.

We had zip here.

The January or so 1996 blizzard, I got snowed in for a few days at my then fiance's place.

For some reason your poetry on Thread Bears in your closet reminded me of the Erma Bombeck quote on hangers;

Sexually active coat hangers are at their peak when they are in a small closet. We once lived in an apartment with a closet so small it couldn't support a rod... just two nails. Within a week (the shortest gestation in the history of coat hangers) we had thirty-seven of those little suckers.

Nope, you stole it and now it's gone for good. I did enjoy the sleep though.
