~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XII~

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 I...

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...

I used to be able to drive one. Took every chance I could get. They were a blast to drive!

Thanks so much for the tunes today. Listening now to Peace In the Valley.

Coffee, donuts and tunes are so very welcome everyday. :-)

Hi I am back. Whoa, what a long meeting today. Wonderful entertainment today. The Archivist from Washington DC on Finnish music (early Victor recording) was our guest speaker today. He also played an very old accordion. Wonderful bites of those early recordings as well as historical information regarding the artists.

Tonight we are the stars
longing for planets to
strike fire and awaken the moon.

We look at life in love and laugh
touching our heaven
time waits for nothing....

Good nite poets

May the sweet aroma of Lily of the Valley
fill your dreams
caress your face
tenderly lull you to sleep
in the safety of knowing love...

~ Dream a Little ~ Love a Lot ~

Today

Should thou lovest me this day
I would be content in today
not ask for tomorrow...
But... live this day only
in splendor of knowing
thou lovest me today...
