~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XVI~
November 6, 2004 | bentfeather and Poets of the Lair

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...

I enjoyed Naked very much, NicknamedBob!
May I just comment... ahem.

From the Nekk Down

Down 'heah', it's spelt nekkid!
And you know that's right
'cause you probably been nekking
On some moonlit night.

In the backseat of a 69 Goat,
right before y'all got nekkid
while cranking up some classic
Segar tune you'd dedicated.

See? nekk, nekkid, nekking !

I'm looking into that, as well as a bookseller program. I rather expected more feedback by now, which could help define a target market.

You can do you own releases any time you want. Look on line for examples of press releases to use.

Tules knows me from the undead thread and knows I don't bite much.


Any other testimonials of my.. er.. pedigrees will have to come from others.
