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...

Hi, "Ray!" I feel so warm and happy now. Thanks!
BTW, it is one dazzling morning in southern California/coastal Los Angeles! It was so bright I thought I had way overslept. Just before 7:00 a.m. I first viewed sunrise. The sun was absolutely golden on the eastern horizon and the sky a bright clear blue. I've never seen sky that blue so early in the morning.
All we've had for months are gray, gloomy mornings. Well, I'm going to skip down to the cafeteria for my pancakes. See ya!

To: La Enchiladita; bentfeather; All
Gracious are the blessings
you are so sweet
said with a smile ...
let us bow down awhile
before the God of glory
a new verse to begin
every thought a prayer
no matter when ...
no matter where ...
every thought a prayer
all we do on-going
is beyond our knowing
God alone may turn
everything to good ...
for those who love Him ...
Joseph knew the truth
what men meant for evil
God meant for good.
so he loved his brothers ...
and he did show it ...
An excellent image
to apprehend ...
may we pass it
... to others
with honor, respect,... homage
To: Countyline
Hello, CL.
Wonderful poem. Thank You.
To: Countyline
This really lifted me up, Countyline...
every thought a prayer

To: Texas Songwriter
Many creatures seem to love apples...
Reminds me of a song Rosalie Sorrels sang:
If you love me,
If you love, love, love me,
Plant a rose for me
If you think you're gonna love me
For a long, long time
Plant an apple tree.
So, whether you comes
And whether you goes
I'll have an apple
And I'll have a rose
So easy to eat,
Nice to my nose
And every little bite will be
A sweet reminder of the time you loved me
And planted a rose for me ...
And a apple tree.

No Pancakes in the bin tonight
lovely sunsets eyes delight
lately haiku rules as
inspiration's tools
country roads, and stray dogs
old barns and leafy ponds
a hello and howdy from Old Sarge
makes a heart proud --
We Have The Dragonflies' Lair.
