The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread XLIV
November 03, 2007 | Soaring Feather/Poets of The Lair

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...

She had a tomcat after her..and she was young..My SIL is the one who discovered the kittens in the compost pile and finally brought them in after watching for the mother..He put food out to entice her back..No shelter is going to take one week old kittens..so it was up to us..

Yes, that’s true, poor little helpless critters. My daughter raised feral kittens, she still has them, the mommy cat is blind now. Really beautiful cats.

They process cat owners.

Fuzzy things that take up space, eat a lot, mess up my bonsai planters thinking it just another cat box, an attitude wrapped in shedding fur with pretensions of importance. Them Kats!

Cats like Sassy the First who "sprayed" my hand seqioned and embroidered Christmas tree skirt made by my mother in law and also sprayed my husband's suitcase as he got ready for a trip..

Then there was the wall of drapes he climbed.. .He lived 15 years..amazing case of survival..LOL I adored him.

My latest is a rescue and did not go through the kitten stage with me..She is so easy going and doesn't create havoc. She owns me, though.
