The Dragonflies' Lair ~ Thread XXXIX~ June ~ July~ August
Poets of The Dragonflies' Lair | June 19, 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...

Damp here,too...We just got enough rain to wash the leaves..(as if they needed it) and wet down the patio..Later today it is supposed to rain again..I got enough inspiration from the sun that did shine to get more cleaning done.

Today I rest.. and watch the concerts and fireworks on TV.
How wonderful that you can see your fireworks from your front porch!

Yes, and my street is tree lined, but there is a huge break that is directly in front of the hill where they fire off the display. I can’t see any ground stuff, but all high aerials are in my sight.

Rest and have a grand day. No cleaning day!! LOL

Happy 4th to you, too!

I am watching on TV the Bristol, RI, Fourth of July parade.
The Annual Fourth of July Celebration, started in 1785, is the oldest continuous celebration of its kind in the United States.

It runs 3 hours long and has bands from all over.

Tonight the Boston POPs.

This is a lovely tribute to our military covering all the wars. Some of the graphics are chilling, the video warns before clicking.

Freedom is not free.

My TV’s right here with the rest of my electronics. The big TV in the livingroom, which I usually use to watch this spectacular sort of stuff is busted. Going to call repairmen tomorrow.

My TV is across from my computer so I can keep an eye on whatever I am watching. I have a very small one in my bedroom for late, sleepless, night movie viewing. ;)

My living room TV was bought in 1988! Still going strong.

My TV is across from my puter’s, too.

The busted TV in the livingroom could be as old as yours, I’m not sure, but we have one down in the playroom that’s in its 30s and still running beautifully.

Oh my, this is good news! Do you often have many doanations for the store. I remember you speaking about doing an early pick up when you had the other store.

I wish we were closer, my kids and I could keep you going for a long time with all the stuff we have. ;)

It has been a while in coming!

Oh well, we don't have any little kids now so we would not be much help, but sure glad donations are coming in.

helping a crisis pregnancy center
Thank You,Fatima.
