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 just Read on Drudge Report that the UN will not be able to feed the world with their current supplies...
I personally do not mind helping others...
I can even overcome the sin of pride when it comes to helping others that could help themselves but for various reasons will not...
What I can and will not abide is giving to people that will use my generosity to neglect improving their lives just for the chance of destroying my life, using the very generosity I gave to them.

Don't let my size
fool you
Kitten just means
young
Cat
Just as the cute cub
becomes one of the big guys
So will I get big
at least I hope I will
For now
Let me dream
Stretch and contort
Cat yoga
prelude to Cat Kung Fu
As I practice my intense
stare
Brandish my little razors
and prepare to defend this...
Um
Washing machine?
Hey!
Somebody told me this was a fortress!
~sigh~
um, nevermind
Could you pick me up now?
It's kind of high up here

Good morning everyone.

Not exactly the cat bird seat,
nor an ivory tower,
a hole in one on an old fence post
most unusually done!

Very nice cat poem, we have lots of cat lovers in the Lair. ;)

I think many of us feel the same. Some have never heard "one does not bite that hand that feeds it."

Thank you!
I Love Kitties!

Life
by Ronald Reagan
I wonder what it's all about,
and why We suffer so,
when little things go wrong?
We make our life a struggle,
When life should be a song.
Our troubles break and drench us.
Like spray on the cleaving prow
Of some trim Gloucester schooner.
As it dips in a graceful bow...
But why does sorrow drench us
When our fellow passes on?
He's just exchanged life's dreary dirge
For an eternal life of song...
Millions have gone before us,
And millions will come behind,
So why do we curse and fight
At a fate both wise and kind?
We hang onto a jaded life
A life full of sorrow and pain.
A life that warps and breaks us,
And we try to run through it again.
President Ronald Wilson Reagan, 1911-2004

Wonderful!
I think, today people are looking for another Ronald Reagan, there is and was only one. Great man!
To: Soaring Feather
If only we could have a few more of him, I pray.
