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

Good morning, Meg, lovely painting this morning, thank you.

Trust your weather is not wet! We are into very moderate temps, mid 70s for today. Just delicious and so much easier to move about.

Among the Trees
William Cullen Bryant


The linden, in the fervors of July,
Hums with a louder concert. When the wind
Sweeps the broad forest in its summer prime,
As when some master-hand exulting sweeps
The keys of some great organ, ye give forth
The music of the woodland depths, a hymn
Of gladness and of thanks.

Good morning MEG33. What a pretty painting. I was thinking about tomorrow’s breakfast that would start off with Angel’s Wings shaped waffles and assorted fruit toppings. What do you think?

Yup all is well, lovely night for sleeping, cool with low humidity perfect. Great weather for the day- possible rain in the evening hours.

Good to hear that you have pleasant weather. My days at work have been kind of busy. For the last 3 days I have been super busy relocating my stuff to another part of the building. It is amazing just how much paper one can collect in just 6 years.

Oh no moving an office, yikes what a job. I have the paper chase here as well, don’t know why I let it accumulate so much. ;( Lazy I guess.

The real dilemma is what to keep and what to throw away. Of course you know that once you have tossed it, you will need it shortly thereafter.

I have to wait! ??I just finished taming the backyard ground cover, and washing the final window..the small kitchen window that requires a step ladder..I’m starved.

Sounds delicious!

I cleaned out my old files this spring..It was like moving!

Just wanted to “float” that menu by you. Of course brunch would include various flavors of ice cream to grace the waffles along with the various fruit toppings. All low calorie stuff ;-).

Just the right thing to kill those hunger pangs.

That is exactly the way I look when I wake up and before any coffee.
