The Dragonflies' Lair ~ Thread XXXVII~May, June 2007
Soaring Feather/Poets of The Lair | May 7, 2007 | Soaring Feather

My Dragonfly 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...

Yesterday’s nap was longer than it was supposed to be and I had to hustle to class. Boy was I tired. I dragged through class, came home, went to bed and slept over 10 hours!

Better today and another beautiful one as well.

How’s by you?

Thanks,

I have a good camera! Not too bad a picture from a moving bus, we were on our way to the Ronald Reagan Airport.

I have a few other picture from that Summer trip.

Good poem Lady, fabulous graphic.

Well, you had a long sleep! Get some rest today if you can.

I had to be at the dentist at 9:30A.M. All went well.

Thanks, Sweet Treat!

Increased thyroid meds are needed. It was increased a few weeks ago and will be increased again in a few weeks. Being exhausted all the time is tough to take.

You can rest on your laurels now that you did your duty at the dentist.

Yes, I have to, every time I move around, the bleeding starts, I had to have a tooth extracted. It's a problem for me as I am on blood thinning meds. I am okay though don't worry.

Getting your particular med regulated is tiresome I am sure, but when you are feeling stronger and more like yourself -well that's the pay off.

It is a perfectly gorgeous day today. Temps are going into the low 80s, maybe this afternoon I can sit out side for a while. That would be nice. ;)

Can you do anything for that bleeding? Like gargle salt or something?

Sometimes using a tea bag for pressure will work to control the bleeding.

Nothing like that for 24 hours.

I can take Ibuprofen for pain, but don’t have any now. Also, cold to keep swelling down.

I have to be careful not to loose the clot and rinsing would cause this to happen. It may happen anyway, I do have to eat something, soft foods only.

Yes! I remember the teabag trick!

Now that you’ve jogged my memory, do you have cayenne pepper in your medicine cabinet? Cayenne stops all manner of bleeding within 10 seconds.

It is truly amazing, but unless you’re used to it, I wouldn’t recommend putting it on a tooth.

Dry tea bag I would assume?

It’s getting better now.
