The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread~XXXIV~March 10, 2007

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...

A Snowy Day
 
  The wind blows harsh across the land
And snow begins to fall
I sit and watch as it whirls around
A blizzard now so grand

Snow, some call bitter and cold
Wraps me in a while cloud
Where nothing can harm or hurt
Oh, how I love the snowy day

No work is more important
Nothing has to be done
At least not yet, not until
Its stops, but oh I hope it will not

For there is nothing more I love to see
Then earth silently covered with white
All mine in this corner where I am
Let the harsh wind blow and the snow come down

You can dream while it snows
Remembering other times
Put all behind you now
As a perfect world emerges

Don't mar the snow with tracks
Let it lie soft and clean
And take from it the glory
Of a beautiful snowy day.

This morning we awoke to snow flurries. This has been an unusual winter, hardly any snow (about 1 1/2") and weathermen say this will be our biggest storm yet.

Parts of MA are due to get upwards of a foot of the white stuff. Down in southeast MA, we're due just a little snow which will be washed away with rain tomorrow. Let's see how correct they are.

No..I found it last year and just kept it because I liked it. Perhaps it reminds me of times at my grandfather's farm..without the snow.

All our snow is gone and I hope it stays that way. They have been predicting snow for a couple days but we have none...

I saw a weather map and it looks like it will miss us but get you Feather. Is Mass getting hit? My brother and Grandmother live in Ashland.

Looks like this storm is going to go on for days.

Three to five inches is not much, however, over a few days is could add up.

I bet The Mayer lives in Oswego County. They often have bad winters, but this one was horrible.
