The Story of my Blog Title

Quilt of Dragonflies- My blog is named that for a reason.I am lucky enough to own a genuine Quilt of Dragonflies, which I am sure brings me good dreams when I sleep beneath it. It was given to me by a friend of my mother's, who handmade the entire thing. Color meets pattern in this fantastic piece of artwork which sits on my bed. Brilliant shades of purple, blue, and green intersperse with tie dye dragonflies. I will not hesitate to call it my inspiration.

Night

Night
An original poem by Claire

The mist enshrouds everything
Sifting through the treetops
Hanging in the silent air
 Your face and hair sparkle
Your footsteps
Echoing against the damp pavement
But you feel
As though you are
Walking through the clouds
Surreal
The birds shiver
And burrow deeper
Into their nests
Eerie
The trees follow you
With their silent gaze
Streetlamps
Are
Pools of gold
In the ebony darkness of night
Other worldly
Tendrils of mist
Wind around your ankles
The moon
Hidden by a veil of clouds
Watches you and smiles
And the stars are
Pinpricks of light
Dancing just for you
