My Dragon Fly 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 Night my Friend

In the Mind’s Garden
the wind whispers of passing
and the soul records

[Soaring Feather]

Good morning everyone.

To Nature

It may indeed be phantasy, when I
Essay to draw from all created things
Deep, heartfelt, inward joy that closely clings;
And trace in leaves and flowers that round me lie
Lessons of love and earnest piety.
So let it be ; and if the wide world rings
In mock of this belief, it brings
Nor fear, nor grief, nor vain perplexity.
So will I build my altar in the fields,
And the blue sky my fretted dome shall be,
And the sweet fragrance that the wild flower yields
Shall be the incense I will yield to Thee,
Thee only God ! and thou shalt not despise
Even me, the priest of this poor sacrifice


By: Samuel Taylor Coleridge

;o) I have been roaming around the yard..snipping this little twig and that just to enjoy..Washed down the patio, too..

My neighbor's tree is turning to orange on the side facing my front door..My nandina berries are turning orange..It's warm enough for short sleeves, cool enough to really revel in the weather.

I pulled another late nighter..I think I was too tired to want to go to sleep..I did big grocery shopping and errands while I was still sore from yardwork.. I am back to trying to get "normal" again..but sleeping til noon cured the aches and pains.LOL! Hope you are feeling better,too.

[Soaring Feather]

Feeling great thanks. I was out and about today, had to have blood work done, finally a normal reading, YAY.

Went to the bank and did a very small bit of grocery shopping.

Got the stew pot out now and am browning the meat for a killer stew. LOL

The weather here has been really nice for several days now. Oh we have had some rain but I have not had to be out in it.

Glad you are back to normal regarding sleeping, I am doing okay in that dept too. Of course, the time will change again ad put a crimp into everything for a while.

My 3 Quince Apples are in the house ripening, they smell wonderful. I just sit around and sniff Quince. ROTFLOL

There are still lots of leaves on the trees. I love to the the moon riding behind them, most lovely.
