I am just
a teenage girl
dusty sneakers teetering
on the brink of something special
if you stare into my gentle eyes
for long enough
you just might fall into
my soul
I live in an overcrowded
lonely place
my eyes glisten
I cry for the woes of the world
for my true love
that was not lost
yet not quite found
my brave new heart
beats on my sleeve
my insecurities live there too
my brown hair
is made of honey colored dreams
my skin is made of
star dust
I love all
yet answer to none
I am just
a teenage girl
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.
