~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XX
May 8, 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...

Mountain And Sea



The mountains shall bring peace,'tis said;
They bring it not to me,__
The craggy heights are cold and dead
Give me the tossing sea

Too like the prison of our life,
These cliffs unyielding stand;
They stir the passion of a strife
They cannot understand.

But where the breakers strike the bar
And rolling billows foam,
Where tides come creeping in from far,
And bring the sailor home,__

There, where the sunset lights the sails
That seek another shore,
Would all my longing might avail
To draw me evermore

Elizabeth T. Spring

Ha! You see that?! I hop in & am inspired
by an old poem. How do you like that?!

The Lily of The Valley
graces the ground
with white fairy bells
dangling down.
Morning dew
caresses their leaves
& stars of twilight
bless them on eves.

I guess it helps that Lily of The Valley is a favorite of mine.

The long days of summer pass me by
as I chase my ever elusive butterfly.
I run after it every day
& still it manages to keep away.
Whenever I seem to have it in sight,
it turns a sharp left or makes a quick right.
I finally digress, I'm not to hold
the beauty with wings of solid gold.
I lay, defeated, on Earth's lush, green floor.
I can't chase after it anymore.
Just when my hope is almost gone,
I see my butterfly on the horizon.
The moral of the story is, you see,
when I chased, my butterfly tried to flee,
but when I waited... it returned to me.

My eyes drunk with
your countenance
I inhaled you into
my pores, exhaled you with my breath
cherished you in my heart
wrapped myself in the essence of you.
