 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...

  High Holy Days
 
 Snow so softly falls silent out of the ebony sky
 a blanket of forgetfulness over autumn's litter
 and small lights strung challenges the stars above
 lighting the season on porch, window, and trees
 I smile as I walk tonight, for even sadness flees
 for now we will celebrate the Season of His Dove
 remembering what he would accept for us so bitter
 and in doing so, set even my old sad soul to fly

    Oh no, I’m here by myself...again!
We’re going to have a winter storm here, promising something like 10 inches of snow and winds (whiteouts are NOT fun!) Nan and I are going to stay home and play house, I hope you all are better off weatherwise!

    Tis the season for plotbunnies -
(fingers to the keys, and write some more)
serious or just for funnies
(I gotta get to sleep, fingers getting sore).
If I let them in I’ll perish —
laptop wants a break, and I’m just getting poor.
Once I had a life to cherish —
ideas run amok — someone shut that door!
Plot bunnies, for the uninitiated, are story ideas that pop up and demand attention even (and especially) when you are in the midst of writing something else. I had one attack that got finished this week, and have three others in the works, and two on the back burner as I speak....

    Defeat those plotbunnies!
(I have to do the same thing, and it takes time I need to finish work in progress!)
I finally have gotten used to putting them down on a digital recorder and getting back to them another time.
Only way to keep what limited sanity I have!!!

    Good morning Lairites! Happy December! Isn’t it amazing how quickly time passes? Pretty soon Christmas will be here and then New Year’s Eve. Time for celebration for what we have and for being above ground.
 This morning we will try something a little different with breakfast:
 - Assorted Fancy Pastries
 - Assorted Fresh Fruit
 - Hot Oatmeal
 - Ham and Cheese filled Croissants
 - Columbian Coffee
 - Milk
 - Tea
 Bon Appetit

Good morning everyone!
 Old Man Winter has moved in, 19 F this morning, with a little blizzard of white stuff, high is going for 24F. 
 It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. 
     
     
 Meg, thank you for the lovely Breakfast setting, NYA, for today's menu, WayzataJOhnn, for hanging around in the middle of the night! 
 Thanks to our Lairites for everything each one brings, it is your place, without you folks, there is no Lair.

    Meg, my daily newspaper is weakening my strong defense of not having a cat. Yesterday, they published a pic from the ASPCA of a Tortoise Shell five year old cat. She is a beauty and holds the record for being at the shelter the longest of any cat. I had to fight myself to stay away from the phone.
It’s just to hard for me to have any pets now, not that I would not love to have one. ;0)
 
To: Soaring Feather
    I think an older indoor cat would be lovely for you! They are really not demanding. I wish you could have one.
