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...

A fang bird and a grin toad, what a wild couple of endangered species!

Yup, you do not see many of those critters around nowadays. Must be Al Bore’s Global Warming scenario that is making them disappear.

The average fang bird gives you about 70 pounds of meat when dressed out, and it mild, seasons well, and is quiet tasty. I still catch the grin frogs from time to time and sell their legs to the frenchman next door. the rest I sell to a liberal lawyer who makes them front men for the various shady businesses he has. Its a win-win either way.

When you “gig” those grin frogs they make one hell of a noise, then they try to bite you with those teeth.

Gig? Too old fashion, I use M-80’s to pop them out of the mud and bag’m up! I can usually get 10 or so in about 3 minutes of fun. The shock wave keeps them stunned long enough to get them in the bag, even with the teeth being brushed and flossed to improve the price.

Hell son, at 55 I was still trying to make all three come true with vigor and intent! May not have made a success of it, but I keep trying, even today!

What the hell, it is only a number. The weather patterns and the lack of services (for want of a better term) over there have that tendency to make you feel older that you are.

okay, after we “gigged” them, we used to knock them in the head to quite them down. But, I like your idea.
