The Dragonflies' Lair ~ Thread XXXVII~May, June 2007
Soaring Feather/Poets of The Lair | May 7, 2007 | Soaring Feather

My Dragonfly 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 think it’s worth a try. Your photo compositions are well thought out and when displayed in an attractive manner, a site such as this would generate some traffic.

It would give you an opportunity to be creative with a web site. Set up a teaser page nicely laid out, then add links, and other bells and whistles to keep the viewers interest.

Your directive comments about the photos location, etc. help to hold a viewers curiosity. Go for it!!!!

Thanks, I think I will try it. I think I caught a reference to fatima and you both setting up new sites too, did I read that right?

It's all the rage these days, everyone should open one!

Fatima is learning about sites. We talked about it the other day. She has one started and will learn about developing it.

Fatima mentioned having Yahoo, no ads or other annoying junk on the pages, most important, the trick is to get the viewers eye and hold it.

Our Anthology site keeps me busy at times. I think a web site should have some change here and there other wise it gets boring.

With your most intriguing nickname as a calling card, I bet you will do well.

So you have the typical tropical rainy season. I’m willing to bet It’s pretty humid year round. For decades I’ve been polling people regarding their ability to adjust to humidity and I’d say you’re pretty fortunate to acclimate so well as many people cannot.

The folks who are retiring on the road have already seen most of the US and tell stories that get me all excited because we just bought our first motorhome.

Having enjoyed RVing with friends in the 70s, I’m looking forward to more exploring. I’ve seen 26 states, Eastern Canada, and several towns in Mexico and am ready to see those again plus a bunch more.

Looking forward to seeing more of your adventure.

Butterfly Dreams
 
  When the blanket of the nightime,
Enfolds me in its sleep,
All the problems of the daytime,
I will pass to God to keep.

I know He can cope better,
Than however hard I try,
As I try my best to fall asleep
And close a weary eye.

And difting off like magic,
Into gentle peaceful dreams,
He gives me understanding,
Of my life and what it means.

In soporific solitude,
My thoughts will slide away,
In total preparation
For an up and coming day.

And always my last vision,
Soft and gentle, very kind..
Is of a tiny lilac butterfly
Which comes flitting through my mind.

Caressing every thought I have...
Events throughout the day...
Its like he's come to wish goodnight,
And always he will say...

'We have come to bless you,
And keep a watchful eye,
We'll always take good care of you,
You know....your God, and I'.

Sally Hemingway

You Are 68% Massachusetts
You're pretty Massachusetts, but you're starting to slip. Go eat a bulky roll and flip off a New Yorker.

Great luck with the ‘Off The Beaten Path’ Travel Tours
It would be fun to know a Two Millionaire CEO of a
successful company giving web traveling couch potatoes
a chance to see a wonderful place, read unusual details,
find out the exact address so they can find it on Google
Earth and impress their friends. You are going to become
the electronic equivalent of the coffee table travel book.

Beautiful property. I am sure that it will give you your much sought after solitude. An open view to the water can be very inspiring. LOL.

You Are 60% Massachusetts
You're likely a Massachusetts transplant. Big rotaries still scare you, and you probably live outside of 495.
