~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Poetry Thread XXV~

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...

The Loon's voice is not a nice sound. Almost as bad as the Peacock.

One year a strange thing happened in the country where one of my daughters live. There had been a terrible wind storm, the loon where migrating, got caught up in that storm only to wind up in a creek behind the house. Well, they need a huge area to take off. My daughter watched them for hours trying to get up enough speed to get airborne. They are almost useless on dry land. Lovely birds though. I love the red eyes.

Congratulations on your gusto!

If you're taking cumiden or coumadin, they do need monitoring. I take an aspirin a day to thin mine.

The weather is great here; it's in the low 60's.

Big Hugs!!

Large doses of it are used in rat poison.

My youngest daughter has taken it for years now. Leg problems.


Me too, I will have to be on it for as long as I live. She will, too.

My MIL took it until she died at age 91.

I know lotsa people on it, most of them have high BP.

That must have been quite a sight. I still maintain that their calls are funny.

Due to Phone modem card problems will be stuck using libray computers when I can get some kid off a porn site to use it. Not gone, just out-of-touch for a while. ;^)

Your Words

Your words to me on old paper rare
are the honey of my sun
the alabaster of my bath, calming me
on stressful nights when you're a thousand miles away
You words on paper grow more precious day by day
as the silver in my hair turns to gray
