~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XIX~
March 24, 2005 | ~bentfeather ~ 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 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...

I used to watch all those shows. In no way would I want to go on a date with that crazy woman.

A Woman's Song


Hark to the heart of a woman's song!
Hark to the sound of sorrow!
Hear her wailing in the night air?
Agony so deep night creatures hear, cringe with pain!
Hark to the heart of the woman's song!

Hark to the sound of happiness...

Hear the laughing in the moor and bog of ancient days,
careening down the valleys of time.
Hark to the sound of a mother singing softly
to the child she holds near her heart.

Oh Heart of my Heart, I love you with all my breath and life!

Heart of my Heart.

My four daughters, fair, the RJ's of my live.
When you were babes in arms, I but a child myself,
I did love and cuddle you,
sometimes I was scared.
I could all but hold on.

Hark to the song of a woman's heart,
seasoned and tempered by assaults of life.
Salted in brine of experience and tears.
Marked by skin stretching across the bone of contention.
Of ignorance and superstition, of damnation!

Hark to the sound of a grandmother's heart
singing praise, joy, happiness,
for the battle was worth it.

Yes, he does get the royal treatment I'm afraid. He has been in Canada since he was 14 years old. He has played for several teams -semi pro. He is a joy to us as are all the kids. Three grandsons and three granddaughters.

My Heart Leaps Up



My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began,
So is it now I am a man,
So be it when I shall grow old
Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man:
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.

William Wordsworth
