Dragonfly's Rest

A paradise is what enters my mind When I reflect upon my dear estate A soft bed and breakfast it imitates Warm, cozy, and filled with precious antiques Named for the turquoise dragonflies we love But they are not the only residents There are chipmunks that live in the woodpile Douglas squirrels bark for their daily snack The wise old Bared owls ever on the watch The black tailed deer graze quietly at dawn Bald eagles ever soaring overhead Bigfoot occasionally visiting Your lush green lawns and colorful flowers Towering furs wall your perimeter A warm fireplace in the winter for heat A cool pergola in the summer months Listening to birds and the wind through the trees The wind chimes and the lone coyote howl Barbecue slow cooking country styled ribs Sipping a cool martini and dreaming God has blessed me and my dear lovely wife With a cottage and a wonderful life
