                 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...

I usually drink 140 oz of coffee per day.
 Doesn't that make you a little nervous?
 
To: Lady Jag
    I think this is the brand my daughter buys, and there is a lot of it!

    Lately all of my days have been of the lazy ilk! LOL
 I am so bad. Just playing all the time. ;)
 Oh, Meg, my Clematis is beginning to bloom, I thought the plant was dead, but it came back up new from the roots. Any way, the color is the deepest eggplant purple I have seen, and it’s loaded with buds. Just gorgeous.

    From my email.....
Love ya!
One day a woman’s husband died, and on that clear, cold morning, in the warmth of their bedroom, the wife was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn’t anymore. No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more “just one minute.” Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, or say “I love you.”
So while we have it, it’s best we love it, care for it, fix it when it’s broken and heal it when it’s sick. This is true for marriage ... and old cars .. and children with bad report cards, and dogs with bad hips, and aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.
Some things we keep — like a best friend who moved away or a classmate we grew up with. There are just some things that make us happy, no matter what.
Life is important, like people we know who are special. And so, we keep them close!
I received this from someone who thought I was a ‘keeper’! Then I sent it to the people I think of in the same way. Now it’s your turn to send this to all those people who ;are “keepers” in your life, including the person who sent it if you feel that way. Suppose one morning you never wake up, do all your friends know you love them?
I was thinking... I could die today, tomorrow or next week, and I wondered if I had any wounds needing to be healed, friendships that needed rekindling or three words needing to be said.
Let every one of your friends know you love them. Even if you think they don’t love you back, you would be amazed at what those three little words and a smile can do.
And just in case GOD calls me home ......
I LOVE YA!!!
Live today to the fullest because tomorrow is not promised.

    Sounds wonderful..I forgot to ask if my daughter’s Clematis survived..She was going to try again and said it was too wet at her house to plant the new plant.
