~The Dragon Flies' Lair VI ~

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...

Morning Sam.

Elvis

Jailhouse Rock and Blue Suede Shoes,
Made his leg start shaking.
Parents freaked about by his style,
Teenagers were quaking.
Elvis was indeed the King,
Of good old Rock n Roll.
Others followed in his wake,
But fame sure had its toll.
He died too young as many do,
The legend still lives on.
He isn’t dead as many think,
He called me on the phone.
Happy Birthday I exclaimed,
He said, “Thank you much.”
I asked where the heck he’d been,
He said he’d stay in touch.
He wouldn’t tell me where he was,
I said I understand.
He really needs his privacy,
Cause he is still the man.
Happy Birthday Elvis P,
Sixty Nine today.
He said he’d drop by later on,
But keep it quiet OK?

Morning CG. Good one about Elvis. He was hit or miss with me, I tended to like his later songs, but some of his earlier ones are pretty good too. Have to admit I did loke his movies, just fun entertainment.

LOL. Here I sit, going over old threads and find this question you asked and I never answered. Better late than never I guess. Almost two years later and yes, it is Mt. Hood in Oregon. :-)

It doesn't seem like that long ago we all had more time to be here. :-(
