The Dragonflies' Lair~Thread XXXII~
The Muse and Poets of The Lair | December 1, 2006 | 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...

I am doing well thanks. Dang furnace is acting up again. Stopped running this morning, I called the landlord, he called the heating guy, they came and went, it's working now.

The heating guys have been here about three times in the last month. Today they discover a broken wire. Doh, man I would be ticked off at them. These guys are not cheap when they write up a bill.

Hope your new med will be the answer for you. I remember when you were so ill with pneumonia.

Did you go to class last night?

Let's hope the guys finally fixed the problem. The landlord pays for that, right?

By all appearances, I could be in this cycle of needing antibiotics on a periodic basis.

I went to class last night and no one showed up. One's got a cold, one had the engine in their car blow, and the new student didn't call or come. I waited for two hours and then left.

YES, the landlord pays and dearly. There really is no excuse for them missing the wiring problem..just a matter of elimination I would think, Guess not for them, hit the juice button and if it fires that's all they have do-they say it's working.

Oh sorry you had no one showed up for class. Sure did not help you going out into the cold for a no show.

Did the landlord help the heating guy downstairs? That would be a good reason for the repairman missing it.

I remember when my mechanic told me he couldn't repair my brakes, so he made my horn louder.

He did come today, but he has been in the basement at other times.

That is a sweet quote. Much like my tagline.




Smile--Smile--Smile
 
  A smile is beautiful with all its charm
Something to give but does no harm
A smile is a frown only upside down
It has a good feeling, just look around
A smile is a flash that cannot be sold
It has everlasting pleasure we are told
A smile is like the sunshine at its very best
Some wear it all the time until they lay down to rest
A smile is valuable like silver and gold
But it cannot be bought just always on hold
A smile is nothing till someone gives it away
Just try your best to receive it some day
A smile is like a statue that enriches the mind
You cannot steal or throw away but not hard to find
A smile is for the rich also for the poor
The benefits are the same till there is no more
A smile is for everyone with its action so true
It creates happiness in the home for me and you
A smile is a smile as known to mankind
Stand up in front and smile not stand behind.

Experts maintain that we will be healthier laughing a number of times every day and I agree.

It's just like exercising making you feel better.

Once you get a grip on life and how fragile it can be, you have no choice but to keep positive attude.

Every day is a gift because it's the present.

Good news about the health benefits of a happy existence. I never worry about that much, as I am a real jokester, and laugh more than a few times a day.

Laugh Lines and Wrinkles
 

 

 

This path I walk
I devoid of all
That I can feel
I am planted in a surreal battlefield
Of life
Were I am
Juxtaposed between
My past and present
I wish that I was twenty two
When I was still on top of the world
Running myself
To success
And happiness
But now I pay the fair
For my life
That is a struggle
To get past the mark
Of each year
For which
My only consolation is
That it will
Never come
This easy again

Adam Caldwell

To laugh is to be free of all that is wrong with life
To laugh is to enjoy life as God intended
To laugh is to touch a place free of strife
and to share it, a gift beyond gold itself
