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.

Thought of the Day
American poet Emily Dickenson wrote,
"Behold this little Bane --
"The Boon of all alive --
"As common as it is known
"The name of it is Love."
Today is Monday, Oct. 3, the 276th day of 2005 with 89 to follow. Rosh Hashanah begins at sundown. The moon is new.
The morning stars are Mars and Saturn. The evening stars are Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Venus and Pluto.

"Did You Never Know?"
by Sara Teasdale
Did you never know, long ago, how much you loved me --
That your love would never lessen and never go?
You were young then, proud and fresh-hearted,
You were too young to know.
Fate is a wind, and red leaves fly before it
Far apart, far away in the gusty time of year --
Seldom we meet now, but when I hear you speaking,
I know your secret, my dear, my dear.
To: bentfeather; everyone

colourful beauty
dragonfly of many hues
Joseph's coat purloined?

Sated Sweet Savagery
Soft as watered silk and hot as any fire,
she seems to burn like a forge beside me.
Her breath is hot and her lips hungry soft,
seeking me in her need so deep she burns.
We explore each other with desire in turn,
as the flames of our desire ever upward loft.
I caress her with intent to please you see,
and she reciprocates as my need goes higher.
Her soft hands now grasping claws that need,
seeking closer contact, we strive as we burn.
Her whispers direct and I answer her with love,
and she calls out her fiery need and she screams.
Passion ignited uses us in our duality it seems,
as we strive for oneness just out of reach above.
Our bodies ache for release as we take our turns,
and dimly do we perceive the climax we but feed.
I kiss the curve of her throat, feel the pulse below,
she arches up in hungers greed to partake of more.
A cry rings out, then another, our two worlds collide,
explosions of inner fusion of mind and soul so bright.
I hold her a moment as she holds claim to me as right,
we fall through eternal void, where nothing may hide.
Bound in soft captivity of hearts at peace evermore,
as we drift away on loves timeless sweet dark flow.

It seemed cold in here, so I thought I'd turn the thermostat up a bit to cut the chill. (That was ok wasn't it?) ;^P

Leaves

A fall leaf has many
Colors, red, and orange,
They swing back and forth.

I'm back. :-) Sorry I've been lax in my appearances at the Lair.

It Gets Better by Jo Dee Messina (click to listen)
This old world can be cruel sometimes When you're looking for answers You can't seem to find No one understands what you're going through
Oh I know it can get lonely out there When you feel like nobody cares Well you look around thinking If they only knew Well I do
I've felt the chill of this world cut down to the bone I've walked many a mile down this road on my own I've been through hell on my knees Come face to face with the devil And I know that it's hard to believe But it gets better
Time is a healer but we can't see how When you're caught in the moment And the hurting is now We don't wanna see that maybe somethings Weren't meant to figure out
I've felt the chill of this world cut down to the bone I've walked many a mile down this road on my own I've been through hell on my knees Come face to face with the devil And I know that it's hard to believe But it gets better
This old world can be cruel sometimes When you're looking for answers Well just keep in mind No you're not alone We're all trying to find our way through this life
I've felt the chill of this world cut down to the bone I've walked many a mile down this road on my own I've been through hell on my knees Come face to face with the devil And I know that it's hard to believe But it gets better |

LOL on the tagline! Good one.
I am so glad to see you have some time to just goof around a bit. They are tightening down on the music links however, I am happy to have you post a poem now and again.

Well, we are here, 3 of us. My youngest brother has not seen the KC, MO bro in years, nor has he ever flown. I made this my mission for the brothers.
They are out riding around now, you know the guy thing.

Good for you getting them together. There's something about men -- it takes the women of the family to keep them connected I think.

Yikes!!!I thought Hot Flashes
were a thing of the past,
but now . . .
here's our Johnn
stirring warm ashes, and
lighting a flame
to dispatch us,
to Paradise at last . . . ;-)
