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...

for fear of a good beating

We Shall Never Forget 9/11.
Our nation invaded by an evil force, 3,000 Americans lost their lives.
May they RIP.

Beautiful Barbara Olson

Beautiful Barbra Olson
one year ago you went to heaven
The horror of that day I can not write,
but Barbara dear heart,
I miss you terribly!

Many candles were lit for you
many tears were shed for you
today my heart weeps for you
today my heart weeps
for your family, for all the
families whose members
never came home.

Brave Lady Barbara,
today you wear a crown
of freedom and glory
you walk on jeweled streets
in rich sweet flower gardens
You Barbara know no pain.

You fought your good fight
calling Ted from the plane
you did walk the last mile
with bravery and determination
just as you walked through life.

Now dear heart
your beautiful face
will always be beautiful
your laughter always
like chimes
We take peace
in knowing you're safe
and nothing will harm you again.
You're safe in the arms of Jesus.

Computer Mice
by Todd-Michael St. Pierre
Can anyone give me advice . . . ?

What to do with computer mice?

At night they come out

And race all about.

Each mouse and it's spouse

Invading my house.

They wreck my office

And they're not too nice.

What to do with computer mice?

Wait, I hadn't thought about that -

Perhaps, I'll get a computer cat!

Hi Connie, LOL, cute email.
