The Dragonflies' Lair~Thread XXXVI~April 12, 2007

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...

Good morning Soaring, lovely roses.

Good evening to you starbase!

Fabulous day today, sunshine everywhere.

Thanks I thought those roses were lovely.

Yup, played some tunes last night. I felt guilty that I was not on very much yesterday.

Music soothes the savage beast or sumthin’ like that. ;)

Well let me reach into my picture vault, I think there's only a few silver pieces left, but for the sake of a "now for something completely different" moment, let me post the pieces of Indonesian art pieces which were on display near the silver exhibition!

I'm running down to the vault now!

Spring is the Period Express from God.
Among the other seasons.
Himself abide,


But during March and April
None stir abroad
Without a cordial interview With God.


- Emily Dickinson, Spring is the Period, #844

Cough cough (dusty old vault!), ah, here they are, seven pictures. Maybe these pieces sailed around the world on some creaky old sailing vessel in the past. Who knows?

Oh, these are just wonderful.

I like the reference to a creaky sailing vessel, could very well be true.

Thanks so much.

I am going to be busy adding the last Silver Choo Choo and now Art to the index. This is so nice we have these images to look at over and over again.

My pleasure, glad to share them. That little digital camera is loads of fun.

I should be in Bangkok sometime next week for a few days. I'm thinking I'll just walk around the places I've already been to many times and look for interesting views of "life" opportunistically.

After all, with 460 free photos that don't even need to be developed, you can just snap snap snap, and then toss out the duds. Good way to sift until you find a few visual gems, instead of holding on until you're sure you have a good shot.

I'm hoping to find a water lily here, a temple view there, sun reflected off the river here or there. Should be fun.

I think this image is one of the most beautiful. I'm looking forward to the show. ;)

At the Zoo
 
  There are lions and roaring tigers,
and enormous camels and things,
There are biffalo-buffalo-bisons,
and a great big bear with wings.
There's a sort of a tiny potamus,
and a tiny nosserus too -
But I gave buns to the elephant
when I went down to the Zoo!

There are badgers and bidgers and bodgers,
and a Super-in-tendent's House,
There are masses of goats, and a Polar,
and different kinds of mouse,
And I think there's a sort of a something
which is called a wallaboo -
But I gave buns to the elephant
when I went down to the Zoo!

If you try to talk to the bison,
he never quite understands;
You can't shake hands with a mingo -
he doesn't like shaking hands.
And lions and roaring tigers
hate saying, "How do you do?" -
But I give buns to the elephant
when I go down to the Zoo!

Alan Alexander Milne
