My soles
Slap softly against the damp pavement
In tune with the rhythm of my heartbeats
In sync
My lungs
Expand and contract
Heaving my chest up and down
My throat feels clogged
My brain feels as if it is working hard
Yet I concentrate on one thought alone
Keep running
Through all my problems
Keep running
Despite all obstacles
Keep running
All you will see
Is the back of my sneakers
I am a winner
And I will
Keep running
Welcome to the Quilt of Dragonflies. Like a quilt, I have a bit of everything...Patterns you may not think would come together until you see them as a patchwork. I attempt to convey my view of the world through daily poems, and sometimes quotes or pictures. Shel Silverstein once wrote, "If you are a dreamer, come in." ~Claire
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.
