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 me...

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 morning everyone! Hope your weekend has been relaxing so far.
I think I'll take a look-see in the kitchen.....maybe there's a chok-lit donut and some coffee left for a midnight snack. YUM!

Heaven's Grocery Store



I was walking down life's highway a long time ago.
One day I saw a sign that read, "Heaven's Grocery Store".
As I got a little closer the door came open wide,
and when I came to myself I was standing inside.
I saw a host of Angels, they were standing everywhere.
One handed me a blanket and said, "My Child shop with care".
Everything a Christian needs is in that grocery store,
and all you can't carry, come back the next day for more.

First, I got some Patience, Love was in the same row.
Further down was Understanding, needed everywhere you go.
I got a box or two of Wisdom, a bag or two of Faith,
I just couldn't miss the Holy Ghost, it was all over the place.
I stopped to get some Strength and Courage to help me run this race,
but then my blanket was getting full, and I remembered I needed Grace.

I didn't forget Salvation, which like the others was free,
so I tried to get enough of that to save both you and me.
Then I started to the counter to pay my grocery bill,
for I thought I had everything to do my master's will.
As I went up the aisle, I saw Prayer and had to put it in,
for I knew when I stepped outside, I would run right into sin.
Peace and Joy were plentiful, they were on the last shelf.
Song and Praises were hanging near, so I just helped myself.

Then I said to the Angel, "How much do I owe"?
The Angel smiled and said, "Just take them everywhere you go."
Again, I politely asked "How much do I really owe?" The Angel smiled again and said, "My Child, Jesus Paid Your Bill
A Long Time Ago."

Morning Sam!

Such a sweet poem and graphic. Thanks so much for all you give us in the Lair. I know how precious and filled your time is these days.

Coffee and donuts are going down good.

Have a good day Sam, I know you are busier than a one armed paper hanger.

[MoJo2001]

Thank you for the ping Queenie!

Good morning Poets!

(Psst..I'm not really here. I'm on my way to get more boxes to send items out. And I had sworn to the Sailor that no more boxes were coming. Hehe!! Surprise!)

[Soaring Feather]

Morning sweetie!! More boxes for the Troops. Praise the Lord!! He is bountiful!!

I sent pictures to my girls of the boxes you had received. They are so proud to be a part of this huge effort.

[Soaring Feather]

Sam, the strangest thing, your good morning music and poem never got to my comments page. Really strange.
