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 I...
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...

LOL. Oh, nothing at all wrong with it. I think women should wear hats. Don't see enough of it but I took the leap!

LOL!!
I agree with you about women and hats, people don't forget us! They may forget the name, but not the hat.
To: snippy_about_it
Sounds wonder snippy!! I think I like the style you describe. The hat style sounds sexy, woo hoo!!
I do not wear brown. I am cool colors, black, pinks, bluereds, purple, so forth.
To: bentfeather
I'll wear just about any color except red.

I am Women!!
One day, three men were hiking and unexpectedly came upon a large raging, violent river. They needed to get to the other side, but had no idea of how to do so.
The first man prayed to God, saying, "Please God, give me the Strength to cross this river."
Poof! God gave him big arms and strong legs, and
he was able to swim across the river in about two hours, after almost drowning a couple of times.
Seeing this, the second man prayed to God, saying,
"Please God, give me the Strength..and the Tools to cross this river."
Poof! God gave him a rowboat and he was able to row across the river in about an hour, after almost capsizing the boat a couple of times.
The third man had seen how this worked out for the
other two, so he also prayed to God saying, "Please God, give me the Strength and the Tools...and the Intelligence... to cross this river."
And poof! God turned him into a woman. She Looked at the map, hiked upstream a couple of hundred yards, then walked across the bridge.
SEND THIS TO A SMART WOMAN WHO NEEDS A LAUGH AND TO THE GUYS YOU THINK CAN HANDLE IT!

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Robert Frost

The Seraph and Poet
by Elizabeth Barrett Browning
The seraph sings before the manifest
God-One, and in the burning of the Seven,
And with the full life of consummate
Heaving beneath him like a mother's
Warm with her first-born's slumber in that
The poet sings upon the earth grave-riven,
Before the naughty world, soon self-forgiven
For wronging him,--and in the darkness prest
From his own soul by worldly weights.
Even so,
Sing, seraph with the glory ! heaven is high;
Sing, poet with the sorrow ! earth is low:
The universe's inward voices cry
' Amen ' to either song of joy and woe:
Sing, seraph,--poet,--sing on equally !
To: SAMWolf
Good morning Sam!
Looks as though we have been thinking Classic poetry this morning.
I love, "I'll Never Fall In Love Again"! So pretty.

Good morning to all! Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
We have ten inches of new snow to deal with today so my weekend was spent behind the snowblower. Have I mentioned that I really, truly despise winter? :)

Have I mentioned that I really, truly despise winter?That's why I'm in Oregon. Don't have to shovel rain and if I really want to see snow, I can drive for an hour and visit Mount Hood.
