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...

Christina Rossetti
A DAUGHTER OF EVE
A fool I was to sleep at noon,
And wake when night is chilly
Beneath the comfortless cold moon;
A fool to pluck my rose too soon,
A fool to snap my lily.
My garden-plot I have not kept;
Faded and all-forsaken,
I weep as I have never wept:
Oh it was summer when I slept,
It's winter now I waken.
Talk what you please of future spring
And sun-warm'd sweet to-morrow:--
Stripp'd bare of hope and everything,
No more to laugh, no more to sing,
I sit alone with sorrow.
by: Christina Rossetti (1830-1894)
Good night Miss Feather and Fellow Lairites . . . see you tomorrow.

Its Coming
Autumns flaming colors sift in windy windings,
cascading curtains between the barren trees.
Wind dancing leaves in a swirl around me,
like a flame colored curtain of parchment scrap.
Timeless moments, oh so soulful binding,
as this autumn day just seems to swiftly flee.
I love the chilly crispness amid autumns debris,
as I zip up my jacket and tug down my cap.
Precursor to stark winters reign upon the land,
this is the season of Natures last fling with color.
Our warning of the time to come of monochrome,
to make us ready for the first tint of new Spring.
So we take what comes to from winters hand,
and hope the snowdrifts will surely get no taller.
Oh I do hate the chilly landscape so dolesome,
and I ache for that first touch of Springs first fling.
To: WayzataJOHNN
Exquisite
Perfect!

Sharing Is Better
She was so bright and happy; and she seemed to glow with pleasure,
her deep and beautiful eyes, so bright with that effusive rush of joy.
How could I, ever tell her it was really I, who had won the treasure,
or that I handed her the winning ticket, so that glow not to destroy?
