~The Dragon Flies' Lair Thread XI~

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...

Cool, I like to stand outsided and watch the lightning, maybe even drive out in it.
The last storm had lots of lightning but no rain.

Thank you.


Nina Gordon - Hold On To Me
(written by: Gordon)
From the album "Tonight And The Rest Of My Life"

We're the same and you don't even know it
We're afraid and we try not to show it
And you're tired and I am too
So there's only one thing you can do

You've got to hold me and tell me what you need
And don't be afraid of what you're feeling when
You know me then I'll never want to leave you just
Hold on to me

When we're apart
I still feel together
I still believe in a thing called forever
But we're drifting apart
It's true
And it's breaking my heart in two

You've got to hold me and tell me what you need
And don't be ( don't be ) afraid of what you' re feeling when
You ( know me ) know me then I'll never want to leave you just
Hold on to me
Hold on to me

We'll drive away where no one can find us
It's time to leave those dark days behind us
In my dreams it's always you
So there's only one thing we can do

You've got to hold me and tell me what you need
And don't be ( don't be ) afraid of what you' re feeling when
You ( know me ) know me then I'll never want to leave you just
Hold on to me
Just hold on to me

Still believe in a thing called forever
Still believe in a thing called forever
Still believe

I can sometimes feel the storm when it's on it's way.
And I can feel the, I guess it'd be charge difference/variance on the ground.
I end up feelingreally up and then really mellow, and then really up agina.
(Read the other day about certain magnetic resonance imaging, and a study of bipolar disorder where the study subjects suddenly felt really great after being subjected to teh magnetic field. Got me thinking, could the storm do something similar?)

Ever see lightning glow in different colors?

LOL. Oh yeah, ever been on hormones? I thought not!

The Ghost of Glen Gaul Way

I

On a foggy night near the rill
sellted down between the hill
a moaning groaning could be heard
echoing through the glen

II
The story goes from time of old
of deadly battles fought
loves won in the dark and dreary
gloomy glen and the dueling men
Knights of Glen Gaul way

III
On a misty night we’re told
dressed in white and finest gold
the ghost of Glen Gaul Way did hold
a dance before the duel

IV
Dusk descending a mossy smell
sending, fiddler heads bending
in the night air blending
songs of night and knights
so bold The Song of Glen Gaul Way

V
The music of the Glen Gaul Strings
complied a motley crew of fairies fair
and knotty gnomes under a mistletoe tree
without a word but with a nod
called fort the goblins old

VI

Now stepping into view
the ghost of Glen Gaul Way knew
the white dove that blew thru
his apparition white
on the beat of two the white dove
true and her love the Dueling Ghost
of Glen Gaul way flew in perfect formation.

VII
The silence fell over the glen
as the two of them did sway
into early dawn at play-
they flesh and bone by dusk light
It was heard they said
in parting of the way
thou art my sinew
I am the bone
thus it shall be for us the
Ghosts of Glen Gaul Way.

Maybe she can miss them while she's asleep.

Nope. I need my sleep. He'll have to take them from some time when I feel horrible.
