The Dragonflie's Lair~Thread XLV
Poets of The Lair | November 30, 2007 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 11/30/2007 7:48:14 PM PST by 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...

Trust me, the Bumbo is not to be taken lightly, it will leave you to discover come morning the size of your swollen head, and who that strange gal next to you is, (check the ring on her finger, it means her husband IS looking for you!)


LOL, well NYA told us he fell in love 100 times while on R&R, maybe he did. Notice he never gave us a Callie report, was she angry with him?? LOL

Good morning (I think) everyone. Yes, Calli didn’t talk to me for an entire day. Today, I get my revenge for that snub, she is going to be groomed so that will really give her something to be in a huff about. I read that the temperature is in the teens where you are. Just as a subtle reminder, make sure your water pipes don’t freeze. It makes a terrible mess and costly too. I had that happen to me on New Years Day many years ago before I upgraded the house’s insulation.

As long as the steam heat furnace is running, no frozen pipes worry, been there done that years ago.

A grooming, what a nice present for Callie, she will be beautiful!

Callie, can get in a huff for any reason, she is a female cat. *GRINS*

What's with those beautiful snow pix?

Do you know that snow shoveling is one reason the folks of the north are fitter and thinner than those of the south?

I have been in many a snowstorms and have shoveled out my driveway only to have the snowplow come along and bury my driveway again. The pictures are in sympathy for those buried by the snow. The snow is beautiful unitl it turns black. If I want to see snow, I can drive 250 miles to see it and play in it.

Good morning!

I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
 

 

 

I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

I thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along th'unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

And in despair I bowed my head:
'There is no peace on earth, ' I said
'For hate is strong, and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.'

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
'God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, good will to men.'

Till, ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Beautiful Ford commercial, SF. Almost 5 minutes long, was it played at a Super Bowl or something?
