~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XII~
May 14, 2004 | bentfeather and poets of The Lair

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...

" Those photos aren't really us."

I realized that. It would be extremely unlikely for a lady as lovely as that to fall for a Guy as "flighty" as you!

I assume you're protecting your identities because you are in a Federal Wit Protection program.

Or is it because you are really a superhero with a secret identity? We know that you have ... the Power of denial!!!

Lesson in denial. "I have posted no photos. If I posted photos they would not be of us." See?

Water is just an ingredient in water or beer. Water has no value on its own.

Since we have some playful poems, I thought i'd join...

The Thread Bear

I have a Thread Bear in my room. He prowls there when I’m not.
He’s messed up all my clothes and now he’s wearing out my cot.
He lurks inside my closet. He’s made a den in there.
His fur is likely made of dust, I see it everywhere.

He steals the threads from collars, he’s opened up my seams.
I’m sure that he’s responsible for those unseemly dreams.
I tried to capture and evict him with new clothes inside a box,
But so far he has eluded me. I think he picks the locks.

I’ve joined the Nudist Colony so I can shed him from my life,
Before I get too bald from all the stresses and the strife.
At least there’s one advantage to my living in that place,
I won’t be too ashamed because of clothes to show my face.

Those dang thread bears. We have to get them under control. If it saves just one collar button, it will be worth it.

First I moved it to Mon. Then I gave it back when I found a whole case of time in my closet.

You just wanted to sleep.
