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 went into my bed
my body told me I was tired
but sleep eluded me
my thoughts turned to you
I closed my eyes
and met you in the stars

Good morning, Lair!
A Prayer For Old Age
William Butler Yeats
God guard me from those thoughts men think
In the mind alone;
He that sings a lasting song
Thinks in a marrow-bone;
From all that makes a wise old man
That can be praised of all;
O what am I that I should not seem
For the song's sake a fool?
I pray -- for word is out
And prayer comes round again --
That I may seem, though I die old,
A foolish, passionate man.

The Single Rose
A single rose, reminding them of,
Their commitment and never ending love.
Of their dreams, and the promises made,
And how their feelings will never fade.
The way he knew, right from the start,
That she was the one, who held the key to his heart.
How he stops at nothing, and goes the extra mile,
For one more chance, to witness her smile.
They pressed the rose, so it would withstand time,
To remind them of, the greatest love they will ever find.

Good morning, Colonel.
Great Yeats read this morning.
Trust you are well.
To: SAMWolf
Good morning, Sam. Lovely poem and graphic this morning.
A single rose,
a single love
a single gift
from above.
Have a great day and thank you.
To: bentfeather
Hello, Miss Feather!
Actually, I'm sick as a dog but I hope this is a temporary thing. :)
