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.

Magic

magic
by Claire

some people need
potions
or
shiny
glittery poofs
smoke
billowing around
the ankles of
a cloaked figure
wearing all black
and a cone
shaped
hat

me

all I need
is
something simple
a leaf
fluttering towards
the ground
a blizzard
which in one night
turns the
world to
white
one person
giving
a smile
to someone who
needs it
a
green shoot
popping
out of the frosty
ground
in the middle
of April
this is what I see
when
you
say
magic
