The Dragonflies' Lair ~ Thread XXXIX~ June ~ July~ August

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...

As Hyacinth Bucket would say “be careful of my Royal Dalton china with the hand painted periwinkles on it”. From “Keeping Up Appearances”.

I do so love those pictures from our Western states, they are magnificent.

I was looking for a poem to go with the photo, I did not find anything that spoke to the scene. Well, I did not look for that long a time anyway. There has to be an author out there who has captured the beauty.

I watched one where Onslo and Daisy won a trip on the QE2. Of course unbeknownst to Hyacynth. The only thing I have to say is that in the entire series, I feel sorry for Richard, Elizabeth and Emmet.

Finally, I was able to load YouTube and listen to Unchained Melody, thanks to your detective work! Righteous Brothers did do it best, don’t you think?

Oh yes, Righteous Bros!! I listened to Elvis, for some reason the feeling Righteous Bros emote compared with the Elvis selection are totally different. Elvis was singing too, hard.

You can get ahead if you work diligently behind the
scenes. Your high energy and discipline will enable
you to complete any seemingly insurmountable tasks.
You will feel better about yourself and you may also
meet potential lovers.
Have a great day Tude! ROTFLOL!

I've seen it once or twice, but not really.

Elvis had his place, but it wasn’t Unchained Melody.

Maybe now that he’s older and more mature.
