~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Poetry Thread XXIV~
January 2, 2006 | bentfeather/Poets of the Lair

Posted on 01/02/2006 7:52:08 AM PST by Soaring Feather

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...

Nope can't see any thing. Freeper mail me to show me what you are doing.

You have to use preview to see if you can see it. If there are mistakes you can see them, the code has to be exact.

"And are you a ungainly, ill-mannered old bird with a strong interest in things of a maritime and piscatory nature?

Wow! Have we met? You're right on target! btw...do YOU have any fish for ol' Peli?"


Yep, caught two walleyes and a bass this morning through the ice, so chow down! Wanna little tartar sauce with that?

I'll see if I can find the article then.

By the way, 'IF' any of you can solve the riddle below, you win a a hand crafted Quill Pen (Made by this mad little pen maker)with which to scribe your immortal prose like the giants of literature did!


Fun for you word smiths!
There is a common english word (9 letters long), each time you remove a letter from it, its still an english word. (from 9 letters to ONE letter)

What is the original word, and what are the the words that it becomes after the removal of each letter?

give you a clue, the word is a name not human.

Btw, thanks for the fish. The sauce is appreciated but not needed.

Sorry to hit and run but I have stuff to do.

Hey Wayz...

Where'd you get that feather... somehow it just seems wrong to award a plum prize of a plume to a peli pooper such as pelikan.

Have you no shame?

It would be similar to gifting a beautiful, young, nubile, female with another young, beautiful, nubile, female...

...well in that case it's okay. But please, please, stop at awarding feathers to boas wearers.

My free verse for the day.

-unc.

Pelikan,

Time for a feather count...
You don't feel a draft do you?

I'll alert PETA to Wayz ways.

-unc. out!
