~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...

"YOU"
You are the thread that mends the pants.
You are the dirt that makes the ants.
You are the nail that holds the chair.
You are the color going through my hair.
You are the life flowing over me.
You are the roots that hold the tree.
You are the tear running down my cheek.
You are the one who is never weak.
I know that words are not enough
so here’s a kiss from one of us!

Not a dumb question at all.

First you need a place to store your graphics.

Once you have that here's the code you use.

< img src="xxxxxxx you graphic here" >

You would need to remove the spaces after < and > other wise it will not work for you. You will get the REDX

Now there are places that will allow you to store your graphics free. Let me look around for one. And your ISP usually gives everyone with an account a free space for a web page, which can be used to store graphics. You will need a file transfer soft ware probgram which can be gotten for free.

I will help you locate graphics. Many people run around and "snag" other's graphics. There is web etiquette as far as I am concerned and that is not it. I can lead you to tons of little graphics. Via FReepmail, of course.
