~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XVI~
November 6, 2004 | bentfeather and Poets of the Lair

Posted on 11/06/2004 8:40:53 PM PST by Soaring Feather

My Dragon Fly and Me

If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!

By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone

On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and me...

And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...

Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

COFFEE



In my addictionary,
The one that’s best for me
Is coffee, blessed coffee -
It bolsters my esprit.

I love that rich aroma,
I crave that hot caffeine;
It makes this life much brighter,
My problems more routine.

It's great up in the mountains,
It's wonderful at sea,
It lifts me by my bootstraps
Wherever I may be.

There's nothing wrong with brandy -
That's dandy apres-ski -
And sometimes I am tempted
To sip a spot of tea,

But coffee gets me going,
Fires up my energy;
It starts the juices stirring
Like liquid TNT.

If I can't find Hereafter
A decent cup of Joe,
I just might exit Heaven
And try my luck Below.

Good evening Ms. Feather!


Gene Autry ~ Deep in The Heart of Texas

The stars at night, are big and bright,
deep in the heart of Texas,
The prairie sky is wide and high,
deep in the heart of Texas.

The sage in bloom is like perfume,
deep in the heart of Texas,
Reminds me of, the one I love,
deep in the heart of Texas.

The coyotes wail, along the trail,
deep in the heart of Texas,
The rabbits rush, around the brush,
deep in the heart of Texas

The cowboys cry, "Ki-yip-pee-yi,"
deep in the heart of Texas.
The doggies bawl, and bawl and bawl,
deep in the heart of Texas.

How Sad, the Year Just Passed



How sad, the year just passed! A year the past
Arose like smoke from deep beneath the rubble,
Pouring up through fissures in the heart,
Perhaps our own as much as those of others.
Year of hatred writhing in raw pain,
Near mad with certainty arrayed in faith,
Each aggrieved alight with righteous anger,
Whirlwinds swirling through their swathes of rage.
Yet let us in the new year look for justice,
Ever the rock on which to live in peace,
Administered with love for every soul,
Regarding every evil as our own..

Nicholas Gordon
