The Dragon Flies' Lair~ Thread XXVI~March 28, 2006

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...

I keep getting distracted. LOL

Working on getting my strength back, I distract often for short spurts, so we might be out of sync. That's okay. Unlike the phone, posts are asynchronous.

Oh, I can continue to be a slacker, no outside work today. The wind has come up very strong and it's raining.


I hope these huge trees around here stay standing. Some of them are shallow rooted, and I am sure diseased.

The rain is heading our way. It held off for the weekend, thank goodness. April showers bring May flowers!

Showers beginning. North of us, in Charlotte, NC, heavy boomers and electric show. I am hoping it stays on that side of the lake.

I like all your graphics, Lj. Got one burned into my old monitor... Robin W. smiles. Your graphics always seem to tell the whole story in one post without tiring typing.

Your very own racous, dry, semi, goodness/evil-when-you-wanna-be wit shines through each. While I never could comment on every one, know in your mind that they always remain on my pink matter hard drive.

I try to do that "messaging" with the music selections in each Longtown Podcast. Oft' times sucessful, some times not. Shameless plugger that I am ... pluggin' along like an old gray mule.

Hope you get to feeling better soon.

unc.

Sprinkles have arrived and I don't think we're expecting thunder boomers. Thanks for the good wishes; I'm pushing.

Pushing right along with you, Jag.

Good Evening Everybody. Beautiful day today albeit on the cool side. No rain at the moment, just plenty of sunshine.

Ode to the Tarpon Passed

Albeit squeamish subject
ponder nonetheless.
Masterpiece speaks of tarpon.

Granderous and beastly fights
Beholder's beauty.
Turning slowly, browning slight.

Yeah OK. I get the hint. You wanna brag, but not directly.

Here everybody! A pic of Unc with a tarpon he caught.

Hi Fatima. That's a beautiful fish, isn't it. And it fills Peli's trap right up!

:)I think it's a little bigger than your trap.

I've been told that my trap grows directly proportional to the task at hand.
