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.

Unidentified Rose

The misty morning brings surprises
You walk down the damp drive
Faintly hoping
For something unusual, out of the ordinary
Staring around the yard
Wishing for change,
For mystery
Then
Poking out of the old, decrepit mailbox
A tear of red
Scarlet against the white and grey
Of dawn
A message
Of no words
Unsigned
The single rose
Which represents so much
Brings a hope to your heart
A smile to your lips
A ray of sunshine
To the grimness of February
This single flower
Brings happiness to so many
