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...

“Hell for JOHNNS age I would almost bet that he remembers Annette Funicello.”

Why would I get that excited about some neighborhood girl from Burbank anyway? Besides, I was dating my English teacher about that time. (at ten, I stood six foot and weighed 170, I was a big boy as a kid)

“Sorry..Nordic seems to be scarce.”

You mean, I have to go find my own Nordic?

OK, but don’t be so critical if she’s a tad frisky then!

About the English teacher?

She was so concerned about ALL my education I had to do some demanding homework to please her I can tell you! However, I did pass with an ‘A’ so I must have been a good student.

All I will say is that as I moved up a grade and changed schools, she was kind enough to introduce me to the science teacher (her sister) at the High School. For the next four years I worked on my personal studies in physics, geometry, and a touch of the humanities with all the free tutoring I got.

By the time I joined the Navy, they had NOTHING to teach me concerning liberty calls and the like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I have always felt that my early tutoring was an important part of my upbringing. I was able to grasp complex relationships much easier for instance.)

I’m off to bed, got to get up at 5:00 to get to the coffee shop and do a days work on my book, later ya all.

OK, I,m up and ready for work.

Since your all slug-a-beds, I’m going to fix breakfast for you.

-Eggs, as you like them, as many as you want.
-Bacon, thick and hot, smoked and maple flavored.
-Waffles, rich Belgium batter, light as a dream and hot!
-Hashbrowns (fried in real butter, cool it on the diet thing right now!)
-Milk, whole, rich and lip smacking fresh.
-Juice, (we got orange and tomato)
-Coffee, with real thick fresh cream and sweetners

Tell ‘Cookie’ what you want and he’ll wipe it up. You just sit at the counter and he’ll set it in front of you. Enjoy its all on me today.

I’m already p a chapter and having fun watching the folks come in for their first cup of ‘wake-up’. People watching is my personal favorite as a hobby!

Good morning everyone!


Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat.
Please put a penny in the old man's hat.
If you haven't got a penny, a ha'penny will do.
If you haven't got a ha'penny, then God bless you.


Traditional English Christmas rhyme
