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...

My kids are smarter than PBJ interrogation - I resort to M&Ms. Chocoholics like their mom at an early age.

[Soaring Feather]

A bit of laughter
helps to lighten the soul!
Magic we call it
moving across the dark light of care
and laughter won't let it
get us there!

HUGS

YIKES, immune to PBJ interrogation.
M&M's, interesting work around on that!
I have to remember that one.

A grin for the day

Golfer: "I think I'm going to drown myself in the lake."
Caddy: "Think you can keep your head down that long?"


Golfer: "I'd move heaven and earth to break 100 on this course."
Caddy: "Try heaven, you've already moved most of the earth."


Golfer: "Do you think my game is improving?"
Caddy: "Yes sir, you miss the ball much closer now."


Golfer: "Do you think I can get there with a 5 iron?"
Caddy: "Eventually."


Golfer: "You've got to be the worst caddy in the world."
Caddy: "I don't think so sir. That would be too much of a
conincidence."


Golfer: "Please stop checking your watch all the time. It's
too much of a distraction."
Caddy: "It's not a watch - it's a compass."


Golfer: "How do you like my game?"
Caddy: "Very good sir, but personally, I prefer golf."


Golfer: "Do you think it's a sin to play on Sunday?"
Caddy: "The way you play, sir, it's a sin on any day."


Golfer: "This is the worst course I've ever played on."
Caddy: "This isn't the golf course. We left that an hour ago."


Golfer: "That can't be my ball, it's too old."
Caddy: "It's been a long time since we teed off, sir.

Not So Distant Day
by Jamie O'Neill & Michael McDonald
(click the picture to listen))

Baby, you undo me
As I lay my heart down.
You whisper things I can’t repeat.
You don’t make a sound.
Babe, you look right through me
I’m naked to the bone.
You see my intentions
The right inside my wrong.

 I can see the love we’ll make
On that not-so-distant day.
I can feel my heart unbreak
As the pieces fall into place.
Lead my soul into your waters
And I’ll never sail away.
I can see the love we’ll make
On that not-so-distant day.

 Baby you can heal me.
Help me to complete.
I know you can show me things
My eyes have never seen.
You can take me that higher plane
And set this captive free.

 I can see the love we’ll make
On that not-so-distant day.
I can feel my heart unbreak
As the pieces fall into place.
Lead my soul into your waters
And I’ll never sail away.
I can see the love we’ll make
On that not-so-distant day.

Oh girl, reality is telling me
Gotta wake up, gotta move on.

 The bus is leavin’ and
My memory is starting to fade.

 I can see the love we’ll make
On that not-so-distant day.
I can feel my heart unbreak
As the pieces fall into place.
Lead my soul into your waters
And I’ll never sail away.
I can see the love we’ll make
On that not-so-distant day.

Letters



I left some
unwritten thoughts
on my desk;

the sun breaks
into my room
every morning
through the window
highlighting those
bunch of thoughts
that won’t sit
on the paper

it feels,
I have already
told you this
many a times

I am longing
to write to you
to tell you that
I love you.

Good morning Star!


Absolutely beautiful song and presentation.

Thank you.

[Soaring Feather]

Good morning everyone.

[StarCMC]

For the record - I bawled while doing it. That song kills me.

[Soaring Feather]

Yes, I just listened to it having just aroused myself from a long nights sleep. Teary eyed here.

[Soaring Feather]

Good morning, Sam.

Nice poem this morning, short and sweet.

Thanks for everything.

The most important human endeavor is the striving for
morality in our actions. Our inner balance, and even our
very existence depends on it. Only morality in our actions
can give beauty and dignity to our lives.
-- Albert Einstein

Good evening Ms. Feather. Another long day for me. I hope you're doing well!

[HopeandGlory]

t'was the new moon
since then I've waited
and lo, at last, tonight

Matsuo Basho 1644 - 1694

Good evening Miss Feather . . .some more Basho, the "Master" . . . one of my favorite Japanese haiku poets.

[Soaring Feather]

Good evening, ms marlowe.

I had a long and busy afternoon, combined with walking to and from a long appointment. It warmed up today so the walk was rather warm. Also, I was taking a shortcut to the appointment when I had to take a detour. A tree had fallen in the wind storm yesterday and live wires were down. That added three more blocks both ways.


Lovely flowers, thank you so much. Hope you can get an easy day in soon.

[Soaring Feather]

Oh my, wonderful. Lovely graphic, too.

Thank You.
