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...

It’s so hard to choose when I’m hungry! I’ll have a couple eggs, a bunch of bacon and coffee. And maybe I’ll take one of those Texas size sticky buns.

LOL

We are going to have to do something about this teasing with cyber food! Delicious menu options, I had to settle for yogurt and an English Muffin.

How does one grow a square mellon, in a square pot?

Summer Morning
 
  Night having gathered the haze
woven by the heat of day
come dawn
has laid it to ground
adorning web and blade
with bright beads
while the sky,
stripped of its veils,
stuns with blue nakedness.

Have you a good way of frying tomatoes? A Brit friend used to to it great but my attempts haven’t been good at all.

I have done Fried Green Tomatoes, but not ripe ones. I guess they could be done on a grill.

Things a Police Officer says

These 16 Police Comments were taken off actual U.S. police car videos
around the country:

#16 “You know, stop lights don’t come any redder than the one you just
went through.”

#15 “Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they’re new. They’ll
stretch after you wear them a while.”

#14 “If you take your hands off the car, I’ll make your birth
certificate a worthless document.”

#13 “If you run, you’ll only go to jail tired.”

#12 “Can you run faster than 1200 feet per second? Because that’s the
speed of the bullet that’ll be chasing you.”

#11 “You don’t know how fast you were going? I guess that means I can
write anything I want to on the ticket, huh?”

#10 “Yes, sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but
I don’t think it will help. Oh, did I mention that I’m the shift
supervisor?”

#9 “Warning! You want a warning? O.K., I’m warning you not to do that
again or I’ll give you another ticket.”

#8 “The answer to this last question will determine whether you are
drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?”

#7 “Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go
to ride on rides, eat cotton candy and corn dogs and step in monkey
poop.”

#6 “Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster
oven.”

#5 “In God we trust, all others we run through NCIC.”

#4 “How big were those ‘Just two beers’ you say you had?”

#3 “No sir, we don’t have quotas anymore. We used to, but now we’re
allowed to write as many tickets as we can.”

#2 “I’m glad to hear that Chief (of Police) Hawker is a personal friend
of yours. So you know someone who can post your bail.”

AND THE WINNER IS....

#1 “You didn’t think we give pretty women tickets? You’re right,
we don’t. Sign here.”

I don’t know if she used spices or a certain oil.

Would you use foil if you did them on the grill?

No foil, I have seen the cooking show chef’s just toss them on the hot grill, drizzle olive oil, salt and pepper over them before they go on the grill.

LOL! Never heard that one before! "...Now we can write as many tickets as we want" LOL!

        12 Things to Never Say To a Policeman

  1. I can't reach my license unless you hold my beer.
  2. Sorry, Officer, I didn't realize my radar detector wasn't plugged in.
  3. Hey, you must have been doin' at least 120 mph to keep up with me...Good job!
  4. I thought you had to be in relatively good physical condition to be a cop.
  5. I almost decided to be a cop, but I decided to finish high school instead.
  6. You're not gonna check the trunk, are you?
  7. Didn't I see you get your ass kicked on COPS?
  8. Gee, Officer...that's terrific...the last officer only gave me a warning too!
  9. I was trying to keep up with traffic. Yes, I know there are no other cars around-that's how far ahead of me they are.
  10. Well, when I reached down to pick up my bag of crack, my gun fell off my lap and got lodged between the brake pedal and the gas pedal, forcing me to speed out of control.
  11. Hey, is that a 9 mm? That's nothing compared to this .44 Magnum.
  12. Hey, can you give me another one of those full cavity searches?

I just love this, LadyJ! Beautiful.I want to be there in your picture.

.Thankfully the sun is shining now and then..enough to spur me to clean the mess left by the rain on the patio..just because I wanted to be outside.
Our day is turning out better than originally forecast.I see some blue sky...and only 30 percent chance of rain.

That’s wonderful you are having weather you can go out in. We are, too, today. It’s 80 outside with dry air (25% we call dry). The pool is 80, too, so I’ll be heading there shortly.

I think we’re expecting fast passing rain either late tonight or sometime tomorrow.

Actually, things are improving. I cut the pain med dosage by 1/4 what I was taking just 3 weeks ago, partly out of the fact that much of it is subsiding, and partly out of fear of being caught in a trap of addiction. Unfortunately, that perco-window is still there. If I had known how helpful being in a swimming pool would be, I would have tried that weeks ago.
And yes, I should be wary of what I put out especially at 2AM ;-P
