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...

Good evening Sarge.
My Valentine
If you wish...

[Soaring Feather]

Thanks so much for all the encouragement you have given me over the months of The Lair's life. I appreciate you all so much.

My Valentine all of you.

[Old Sarge]

A Valentine.

The only Valentine I have received today - from anyone, IRL or virtual.

Double rations for you, Feathers:

And something special and unique for the night:

[snippy_about_it]

My Valentine all of you.

Awwww. You're so sweet. Thank you for giving us a place to be a little free and light hearted while enjoying plenty of good writing, music and "dancing".

Best of all, is the company we all keep here.

[SAMWolf]

No thank you for keeping a poetry thread going at FR.

[Soaring Feather]

Thank you so much for the gorgeous roses. The dancers are wonderful, thank you.

Here in The Lair and FR in general are the Valentine greetings I have received, too.

My Valentine - Martina McBride (song posted by feather above)

If there were no words
No way to speak
I would still hear you

If there were no tears
No way to feel inside
I'd still feel for you

And even if the sun refuse to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart
Until the end of time
You're all i need
My love, my valentine

All of my life
I have been waiting for
All you give to me
You've opened my eyes
And showed me how to love unselfishly

I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
In my dreams i couldnt love you more
I will give you my heart
Until the end of time
You're all i need
My love, my valentine

La da da
Da da da da

And even if the sun refuse to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart
Until the end of time
Cuz all i need
Is you, my valentine

You're all i need
My love, my valentine

[Soaring Feather]

Thank you snippy for posting the lyrics to My Valentine.

I think this is one of the most beautiful Valentine songs I've ever heard.

[Old Sarge]

Here in The Lair and FR in general are the Valentine greetings I have received, too.

I think that's cruel...

[Soaring Feather]

That's life. I have to accept it on life's terms.

[Soaring Feather]

~Clay Aiken~ I Will Be Here~

[Old Sarge]

It'll have to wait until I get home, Feathers: can't hear the music on watch.

But thank you, I know why you do it.

[Soaring Feather]

Oh sure Sarge, that's cool. :-)

[Old Sarge]

I'm headed out now. Relief's arrived, and an hour's drive and I'll be home - there, and here.

Dance later, Feathers? If you're up, that is...

If you're not, then dream...
