The Dragonflie's Lair~Thread XLV
Poets of The Lair | November 30, 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...

LOL, this page is just deliciously funny. I have had so many tree jumpers over the years. Thanks much for posting this link, seems so many of we Lairiets are cat lovers.

;o)
We would find the now older kittens “roosting” in the tree..Much branch reshaping went on..and finally the breakables all removed from the tree..Cat deterrent spray was used and it worked at times but then would wear off and there they went again.
The older cats wanted to hang out around or under the tree.
Much “stalking” and hiding..

My kitty investigated the boxes the last few days..played with some old tissue but did not leap up on tabletops or harm a thing...but she is older and such a “lady”. I untangled the light strands when she was asleep..LOL

Happy Monday!

Some cats are good with Christmas trees, some are great.

If your cat isn't interested in the tree there is something wrong with the cat.

Most dogs don't climb trees where most cats do.

Dogs think of it as something different.

“If your cat isn’t interested in the tree there is something wrong with the cat.”

They LOVE that smell of the tree, nearly irresistible to them.

May be a while before I get back to the board today, my wife is taking me out to dinner tonight. I guess she thinks that for a curmudgeon like myself to live long enough to turn 61 is grounds to celebrate. (I just think is like I didn’t irritate enough folks along the way and no one shot me!) Either way, I’ll be chowing down, so you all have fun and last one out shuts off the light!

Yeah, it’s great. I meant to enlarge it in my animator as they enlarge clearly there.

Take it and enjoy, but you can’t use it when we have our little ‘gif fights’, lol!!
