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...

WOW these are great!

At least the rain is warm, not that cold, bone chilling stuff we get at certain times of the year.

The colors are wonderful, the busy street scenes are delightful!

I'm so glad you enjoy them. In all likelihood I'll pop back over to Thailand this month. I'd kind of like to see something new, maybe I'll catch the floating market (I've actually see that before, but I didn't have my camera)

Hmmm, I'll think about what I can dig up.

I could also take a trip to Hong Kong, but I'm very reluctant to go to a commie country, so it's probably Bangkok again.

Oh, the Floating Market is so fascinating. Remember to get some Lotus Flowers, I love those.

Be safe starbase!

Thank You, Lady for the lovely graphic and Sonnet welcoming Slip18. The Sonnet is absolutely beautiful.

A couple of suggestions for you and your camera if I might? Although the government of Laos is vile, Luang Prabong is a remarkable city -- Stuck in the past, like Thailand 50+ years ago. The people of Laos are very nice and there is some free enterprise at the local level. Mostly though Laos and the MaeKong are beautiful. I'm sure you must have seen Taipei -- good government and lots of fun.

Inside Thailand, Nan Province is the most beautiful, particularly in the rainy season!! Phanom Rung ancient Khmer temple south of Buriram, while not extensive like Angkor, is isolated on a hill and at its best during the rains.

We look forward to your next photos.

Great pictures! So much better then the usual tourist agency shots. You capture the real feeling of the place. The people are being themselves, and that adds a dimension often missing in those staged ad shots one sees. I really liked the picture with the standing water over the pattern of tiles. You can see below the water’s surface, the surface of the tile area itself, and the sky reflected in the water. Three separate worlds as it were, in one picture.

It's not one of those jump out of bed doing cartwheels days.

Slip and Cyper are cool. I was surprised they hadn’t joined the Lair before.

I’m doing okay, just a little slow. Did an errand this afternoon, nice day for a short walk.

I don’t know about you, but meteorological circumstances have created an especially challenging day for allergies.

Beautiful, itchy & stuffy.

I am not bothered with itchy or stuffy, ache like a work horse. ;)

Did you work enough to earn the aches or are they guerrilla aches that snuck up on you?

One of those sneezing, wheezing, hacking cough itch all over days. These type of days make you know that you are alive. 8^)
