~The Dragon Flies' Lair V~

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 guides
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...

Woo-hoo. That's such a beautiful graphic and I know how much it means to both of you.

I have some haiku between SAM and I too but alas, I have to pack up and SAM says I can't dilly-dally. LOL.

I'll save it for another time. I have to hustle here so I can get to sleep early. I have a very early wake up call coming!! Yippee.

Good night Flurry. I can't sing at all but I do anyway when no one is listening.

Okay snippy, can you sleep at all?? I would not be able to catch a wink. There will be plenty of time for the Haiku posting.

I hope the Lair will be around a long time. :-)

I hope so too. I'm going to try my best to sleep a few hours. I'm pretty 'wired' right now though. Last minute stuff, fearing I'll forget something!

You'll be fine, but I remember me this past fall. There were a few sleepless nights. I was told I am organized could hardly believe that one about myself. I guess if I am focused I do okay.

If I had the song, Leaving On A Jet Plane, I would play it for you. LOL

Fly safe, snippy.

Thank you. I always take along more than I need but always afraid I'll forget something. Oh, well. I'm as packed as I can be and about 8 hours to go, only 5 until I have to wake up and here I am typing away. Good night feather, we'll holler when we get back to SAM's place. Probably late afternoon Eastern time sometime.

Whirling in moonlight
we held hands
my feelings stunned
by your charm
my entranced nights
moving in a haze
and once you loved me

"Leaving On A Jet Plane"



All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn
The taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go

There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I'll tell you now, they don't mean a thing

Every place I go, I think of you
Every song I sing, I sing for you
When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time, oh, let me kiss you
And close your eyes and I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times that I won't have to say ...

Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go

And I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go

John Denver

Thanks.
I ended up getting KNOCKED offline yesterday for a while due to some idiot finding the only patch of ice on the road for miles around and getting an instant date with a telephone pole.
So while they patched the phonelines back together, and we dealt with the sliming of the network afterwards here, we were offline.

Nazareth - "This Flight Tonight"

Look out the left the captain said
The lights down there that's where we'll land
Saw a falling star burning
High above the Las Vegas sand

It wasn't the one that you gave to me
That night down south between the trailers
Not the early one that you wish upon
Not the northern one that guides in the sailors

You've got that touch so gentle and sweet
But you've got that look so critical
Can't talk to you babe you know I get so weak
Sometimes I think that love is just mythical

Up there's a heaven, down there's a town
Blackness everywhere any little lights shine
Blackness, blackness draggin' me down
Come on light a candle in this heart of mine

Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
Should not have got on this flight tonight

I'm drinkin' sweet champagne got the headphones up high
Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind

They're singin'-"Goodbye baby,
Baby bye-bye,
Ooh! love is blind"

Up go the flaps,down go the wheels
Hope you got your heat turned on baby
Hope they've finally fixed your automobile
Hope it's better when we meet again babe.

Good morning everyone in the Lair.
Our snippyaboutit is in the air!
To Oregon she flies on a bird
the next word we will hear
is that snippyaboutit has landed without the bird!
Of course, that's a rumor,
really absurd,
how would she land
without the bird!
Hi snippy!

Uh oh.
Landing without he bird, my word, why would one want to land without the bird
Please, tell us all that you've heard!

In excitement of the trip
snippy took off without
the plane, she's over
Chicago now
you see
snippy flying high
and free as a bird
thats why!
