dragonflies can make rainbows

Sometime ago , while Master was in London, my middle son and my father had a discussion about  a barbecue the Easter weekend if the weather was ok.....and if he could choose the meat for it. Well the Easter weekend is upon us and the weather is good, so W/we are all off to the farm for a couple of days. W/we got the meat from a little butchers in a  village near us that specialises in barbecue meats etc... and got salad and rolls from the supermarket on the way back... These of course were packed full of people scrambling for food etc. as horror upon horror the shops are going to be shut for a whole day and for some reason people feel the need to stuff a trolley full of foods in case they run out.......... It makes me wonder how much of it is thrown away.
When W/we arrived home Master and i were having a conversation about tattoo's and body markings ...For some time Master has been considering having Himself inked ... and out of the blue He asked me if i could have another tattoo what it would be. ( i say out of the blue because along time ago He said that i am not allowed any more. )
My first reply was that i didn't want to even think about it (because of what He had said when i first met Him) . i didn't see the point in wanting or designing the perfect part of artwork to wear if it would never come into fruition. We talked....i listened to Him. i understand allot of what He was saying. Markings ...jewellery ..collars these are all personal things ... my tattoos they depict my beliefs.
Brands and tattoos on animals (and some humans)  mark them as belonging to someone. They stamp them with a mark that is not easily able to be removed. Collars , necklaces , wedding rings ......all these can be taken off....if the desire is there , not so ink or a brand.
This led to more talking and listening , and a discussion, which ended up in me telling Master if i was to have another tattoo ( which is really unlikely) i did know what it would be. In truth i would want the bdsm circle inked on my body but the lines that outlined it i would want made of dragonflies, and i would also like my SLRN in the circle as well.
Why dragonflies ..........Well, there is several reasons why.
One there was an abundance of them dancing and gliding in the sky , their wings like miniature rainbows, glinting in the sky on the day that Master and i met for the first time.
Two, i guess i liken them to my opening up in this journey that i am going along . Before the dragonfly hatches they live an aquatic life ......and are called nymphs or naiads. They don't have wings but apart from that they are like the adult version of themselves. When they get their wings they can no longer go under the water.
i liken this section of my life that i am travelling on to becoming that dragonfly, able to soar and reflect light to my total capacity  as i transpire from being a nymph to being whole , and i want to dance and reflect light. ( i guess you could say a dragonfly is one of my animal totems.) i believe that a submissive/slave, if whole and complete is a thing of beauty (just like the insect is to me)  Before when i have had  previous Master's in my life i have never felt this completeness, this total togetherness, and although like a nymph is a dragonfly , i was a slave .. a submissive....but i wasnt complete.  i think that i liken this in my mind, to being a baby dragonfly not yet having my wings . Master has given me these wings and the ability to fly.
The BDSM circle made of them and my SLRN because it makes it completes the picture that i have in my mind.
So see Master, i do know what i would choose, but i also know it is not necessary  (although it doesn't stop me desiring it) to have it physically on my body ...It is stored in my head and i can see it clearly, the same way as i can see my artwork that is on the back of me , without pictures of it or a mirror. i love You for helping me achieve my wings and teaching me i can dance and reflect light.
Thank you i think i found the gold at the end of the rainbow.

  1. A good point or two ,it also reflects that when you become a dragonfly/sub there is no way back ,not all agree and i have been a master a long time and have yet to meet a sub go back to nilla ,thats if they have ever been one ,some would say imply that its like a lot of life its in our genes ,i agree .enjoy the holidays one and all MK.

  2. As usual, saffy, a lovely post and so interesting to read. We sometimes get many dragonflies dancing here, too. You reflect much besides light.
