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.

Five Sentence Fiction: Shiver
The air is boiling. It is one of those days where you can feel the sunburned skin peel off your back and the sweat bead on your neck and face. One of those days where the tarmac is what you think the center of the earth would feel like, and ladies sit on their porches and fan themselves with steaming, arid, air. People drink lemonade and lie still, hoping to ward it off. Yes, the air outside is dreadful, but today you are shivering.
