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...

Yeap, in no time at all, I'll be neck deep in mischeif again.

[Soaring Feather]

Oh dear, I just knew it can't keep a rascal down can we??

[WayzataJOHNN]

Gotta start feeling better, I have spring and summer coming and I intend to have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WayzataJOHNN]

I even have a couple who want to renew their 20th wedding anniversary soon, and I’m doing the ceremony for them. It’s for motorcycle riders, and the ceremony will be on bikes. This sounds like it should be a lot of fun. Keep ya posted. (Now, I have to learn to sew so I can make a better and decent Pulpit Robe so I look more like the minister, and less like just another rider.)

[Soaring Feather]

This should be an interesting ceremony. Anyone writing poetry for it??

Sewing is easy to do. Start your project while your still not so run-about. ;)

[WayzataJOHNN]

First got to find a decent pattern (I'm a BIG guy), and then what materials to use has to be selected. Then I have to learn to sew the material and not my fingers! (Ouch) ;^)

Decided the old one is pretty much worn out, (had it more years then I care to count(!),and thats the truth.) Looked at ready-mades, but their dearier then gold these days, and to have one made my size is worse still. Nope, gonna try to do this myself, and maybe even have some fun along the way.

[WayzataJOHNN]

Hummmmmmmmmmmm, poetry for the event. Now there is a challenge. Poetry for bikers.

Johnn, why can't you buy a Graduation Gown??

Doggerel...

On silver wheels we ride
on wheels we say our vows
our Preacher is very hip
with spurs upon his heels

These twenty years with you
have been one spin after another
with wheelies in the parking lots
and donuts on the hills

I don't think another 20 years
is gonna cure my ills....

Because graduation gowns don't look like this.

Yes it is, but it is always best to sound out one's audience, especially bikers! ;^)

Piping is used for the gold lines. I bet you can find those large crosses, too. You could check around the web for trimmings. Yup, I think you could.

[Lady Jag]

Good evening, BF!

[Soaring Feather]

Good evening, Lady.

Very beautiful graphic and lovely poem. Did you write the text??

[WayzataJOHNN]

"Piping is used for the gold lines. I bet you can find those large crosses, too. You could check around the web for trimmings. Yup, I think you could."

Lets see,
-Pipe
-Webbing
-Trimmings (Christmas? Valentines Day?)

OK, off to the 24/7 Hardware store.

[Soaring Feather]

Cordage is another name.

Go to JoannFabric.com There are many other places on the web as well. This stuff costs some bucks tho, I can tell you that.

Look for Embellishments or trimmings.

Good morning all.

Two trucks loaded with a thousand copies of Roger's Thesaurus
collided as they left a New York publishing house last Thursday, according to the Associated Press;

Witnesses were stunned, startled, aghast, taken aback, stupefied,astonished, astounded, mesmerized....
