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...

Raccoons. We used to have tons of them till the bigger predators moved in. Raccoons are amazingly smart, they used to pull all sorts of pranks around here.

A kiddie pool will be just what the pediatrician ordered for that kid today. I see very few cars over at the park, meaning people might be smart today. We aren't accustomed to these temps yet.

[Soaring Feather]

Yupper, the raccoons run these streets constantly, I have seen big old fat ones dive into the sewer drains. I don't think anyone does anything to rid the city of them. My ex-father-in-law used to trap them for the city. He's been gone many years now.

[Lady Jag]

Trapping and moving them is now illegal here. Some dinks thought it'd upset the ecology if you move them, so if you trap them, you have to drown them on your property.

Raccoons are smarter than those lawmakers.

A lovely poem 'feather, as always!

and for fun

If College Students Wrote The Bible

The Last Supper would have been eaten the next morning -- cold.

The Ten Commandments would actually be only five -- double-spaced and written in a large font.

A new edition would be published every two years in order to limit reselling.

Forbidden fruit would have been eaten because it wasn't cafeteria food.Paul's letter to the Romans would become Paul's email to abuse@romans.gov.

Reason Cain killed Abel: they were roommates.

Reason why Moses and followers walked in the desert for 40 years: they didn't want to ask directions and look like freshmen.

Instead of God creating the world in six days and resting on the seventh, he would have put it off until the night before to get it done.

[Soaring Feather]

Thank You, Johnn.


And for fun, is fun.

Almost Saw A Muse


I almost saw a Muse
her heel flashed reflected light
I almost saw her hem,
....but not quite.

I think I saw a poem
the thought of an idea,
I almost had it here,
....but it wasn't right.

I hear a rustling gown,
blown by the breeze,
a Muse was visiting someone,
....but it wasn't me!

Long hair in the sunlight,
A face so lovely, and such style!
A Muse is in the doorway!
...please, sit and stay a while.
