The Dragonflies' Lair ~ Thread XXXX~
Soaring Feather and poets of the Lair | July 6, 2007 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 07/06/2007 7:07:33 AM PDT by 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...

Good Day to YOU too Ms. Feather! I hope you're feeling MUCH better!!!

...Is it too terribly late to post THIS one... before all the poets arrive?
(I tried to put it on a nice background, at least...LOL)

Thanks to Bill...


Some Things To Consider


1. The nicest thing about the future is that it always starts tomorrow.

2. Money will buy a fine dog, but only kindness will make him wag his tail.

3. If you don't have a sense of humor, you probably don't have any sense at all.

4. Seat belts are not as confining as wheelchairs.

5. A good time to keep your mouth shut is when you're in deep water.

6. How come it takes so little time for a child who is afraid of the dark to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night?

7. Business conventions are important because they demonstrate how many people a company can operate without.

8. Why is it that at class reunions you feel younger than everyone else looks?

9. If you want to find a permanent job, scratch a dog.

10.  No one has a more driving ambition than the boy who wants to buy a car.

11.  There are no new sins; the old ones just get more publicity.

12.  There are worse things than getting a call for a wrong number at 4 AM.  Like this: It could be a right number.

13.  No one ever says "It's only a game" when their team is winning.

14.  I've reached the age where the happy hour is a nap.

15.  Be careful reading the fine print. There's no way you're going to like it.

16.  The trouble with bucket seats is that not everybody has the same size bucket.

17.  Do you realize that in about 40 years, we'll have thousands of OLD LADIES running around with tattoos ? (And RAP music will be the Golden Oldies!)

18.  Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Corvette than in a Yugo.

19.  After 50, if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you are probably dead.

LOL, good ones all.

Love this one. 18. Money can’t buy happiness — but somehow it’s more comfortable to cry in a Corvette than in a Yugo.

WORDS OF WISDOM



1. Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach that person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.

2. Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything, but you  still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down  the stairs.

3. I read recipes the same way I read science fiction. I get to the end and I think, "Well, that's not going to  happen."

4. Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

5. The other night I ate at a real family restaurant. Every table had and argument going.

6. Have you noticed since everyone has a camcorder these days no one talks about seeing UFOs like they used to.

7. According to a recent survey, men say the first thing they notice about a woman is their eyes, and women say the first thing they notice about men is they're a bunch of liars.

8. Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.

9. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

10. Have you noticed that a slight tax increase costs you two hundred dollars and a substantial tax cut saves you thirty cents?

11. In the 60's people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

12. Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.

13. There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

14. How is it that one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?

15. You read about all these terrorists -- most of them came here legally, but they hung around on these expired visas, some for as long as 10-15 years. Now, compare that to Blockbuster: you're two days late with a video and those people are all over you. Let's put Blockbuster in charge of immigration.

After reading the poem, I can verify that there are people that I have worked with in my past life that actually believe in the philosophy that the poem exudes. It had nothing to do with poetry. At the time it was a necessary evil.
