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...

LOL! I'm sure the dragonflies will let you off the hook, as long as they're not on it.
Think I'd better sign off now. Electricity was off earlier and satellite still isn't back. We had tornado warnings a little while ago and then a major storm with more predicted for tonight. So, am going to turn everything off and head to bed. Good night Ms Feather, hope you can sleep in tomorrow.

Good morning everyone.
To: bentfeather
Good morning. A fast one; I have to get ready for work.
Meditation on Isaiah 11:10
On that day
the Root of Jesse
shall stand as a sign, a banner, a signal
to the nations,
and the Gentiles shall seek him, inquiring,
for his place of rest shall be glorious.
What sign did he give us?
A babe so poor
that he sleeps in a stable,
laid to rest in a feeding trough
for lack of a bed,
A babe so special
that the heavens could not contain their joy,
for Love had wrought what only Love can do,
Giving all in the name of Love,
no matter what the cost.
What sign did he give us?
A beacon on a hill,
Arms outstretched
in bloody sacrifice,
he the lintel,
he the blood offered
He the lamb consumed
in this new Passover,
for Love had wrought what only Love can do,
Giving all in the name of Love,
no matter what the cost.
What sign did he give us?
An empty tomb
A discarded shroud,
A promise fulfilled,
Hope in the darkness,
Joy in his touch,
Peace,
for Love had wrought what only Love can do,
Giving all in the name of Love,
no matter what the cost.
O Jesus!
Where you are is the glory of God,
Be with me
O Love incarnate,
O Light,
O Peace,
O Hope,
This day, and always.
Amen

First Robin by Emily Dickinson
I dreaded that first robin so, But he is mastered now, And I'm accustomed to him grown,-- He hurts a little, though.
I thought if I could only live Till that first shout got by, Not all pianos in the woods Had power to mangle me.
I dared not meet the daffodils, For fear their yellow gown Would pierce me with a fashion So foreign to my own.
I wished the grass would hurry, So when 't was time to see, He'd be too tall, the tallest one Could stretch to look at me.
I could not bear the bees should come, I wished they'd stay away In those dim countries where they go: What word had they for me?
They're here, though; not a creature failed, No blossom stayed away In gentle deference to me, The Queen of Calvary.
Each one salutes me as he goes, And I my childish plumes Lift, in bereaved acknowledgment Of their unthinking drums.

How thoughtful of you!
To: bentfeather
How are you doing these days?? Getting any warmer in your neck of the woods??
=======
I'm doing everything just a little below the daily speed limit !!!
My neck always gets warmer when a gorgeous woman wraps her
loving arms around it... whether I'm in the woods or not !!! ;-))
