The Dragonflies' Lair~Thread XXXXI
Poets of the Dragonflies' Lair | August 9, 2007 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 08/06/2007 3:44:50 AM PDT by Soaring Feather





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...

Oh say it isn’t so, my musing friend!?!

Where shall I post my silly scribbles, and who will tell me their good???? Do I have to mail them to your house in a big box? Tape them on an elephant? Tattoo them on people who are headed that way?

I know you need to do what is right for you, and still I am greedy for the great time and joy this place has become. Whatever you do, it is right, and all of us can only wish the best for you, our friend, muse, critic, playground monitor, truant officer, and fellow loony poet.

Not ready says Meg
our last meal together
no more breaking of bread
served with an attitude

I’m not ready yet
to leave this place
to laugh with friends
and provide a place
to sup together as a group
and sip cups of
rich black Colombian coffee
brewed by New York Attitude.

No one need go, post as you please
I’ll pop around to shoot the breeze
a little break, a little reprieve
is all I ask, then we can make believe.

Our house stands tall with
ivy covered walls and long
and cool concert halls
with readings and jest
-what we do best....

Just let Soaring Feather, take a rest.
A book to produce, poems to write
of far away places, deep in the night.
of magic magicians and mythical birds
and big mouthed dragons ...my soul
have you heard... A poet goes as far
as they can, then hauls in the reins
when they need, to replenish the well
with poetry food.
