The Dragonflie's Lair~Thread XLV
Poets of The Lair | November 30, 2007 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 11/30/2007 7:48:14 PM PST by 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...

Great. So is there a new XJ6 in your driveway?

This was in a small sack.. from a gift shop..but I made one of my own ..I used whole cloves and cinnamon sticks ..about 4 sticks ..I don’t use whole cloves that often so I put in about 20 .place in a small pan in water .Bring it to a boil ..then simmer it . Watch it doesn’t boil away.I’m sure there is a more elaborate “recipe” on the net..
Can turn it off and use it again.

Sounds easy enough to do. But I will save that for next year. I am not inclined to get out of my robe and go to the store today.

I haven’t been here in years for Christmas and forgot I had this packet..I had it going when my son and his family were here ..and have had it going yesterday and today.
It is nice when I walk in the kitchen.

Years ago I bought a package of three from Bon Ton, I have one left. The Manse is laid out so that the aroma drifts throught the entire house.

I wish there was a new XJ6 in the driveway! I wished on the star and nothing’s yet. My old car needs work and I still love it.

Your question jogged my memory. A week or two ago I heard Ford is selling Jaguar to the Auto manufacturer in India that’s going to introducing it own car to the US in the next year of two. It is rumored they want to own Jaguar to up their image.

I just read where China is making knock-offs of high-end machines and going to import them to the US. BMW was one of the knock-offs mentioned.

Auto brand knock-offs? Favored Nation Status? How does that work again?

and even put poison in our vitamins and high concentrated form of lead paint in the toys. I guess that is apart of the favored nation status. All of this plus a military threat through their spying and such.

Even Chinese don’t buy toys made in China.

It must be the powers that be, the ones I wear my tinfoil hat for.

I do not believe that it was always that way. Way back when T the 1915 or so porcelian dolls were the rage all over the world including China. I guess it must be the political climate for world domination by the Chinese.

Political-economical. The rest of us are peons.

I think organizations are dominating the world, not any country, a consortium.

Almost makes the original plot of “Roller Ball” look meaningful.

Never saw Roller Ball. There’s an amazing amount of things we don’t know.
