The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread XLVI
Poets of The Dragonflies'Lair | January 04,2008 | Soaring Feather

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...

“Pressure hose, yes that’s what I meant.”

I can get a good deal on a High-Pressure Washer, used only once, to clean the crowd after a Grunge Concert in a condemned tar storage warehouse. The guy said if you add the usual 200 gallons of degreaser and surface cleaner, you can turn 3,000 grungeheads into something passable as human. I figure this rig ought to work for Tom, its even got a thirty foot lance. I can also get a really good deal on a scented body wash in bulk that is labeled “Deer Allure” (or deer lure, hard to say which with that faded label.

You Are Mostly Virtuous
You are a good person, or at least as good as you can be.
You try to do the right thing, and you have ended up with many virtues.

While you are virtuous, you aren't a saint. Hitmen cringe in fear
There's definitely a bit of devilishness deep in your heart! You put sand in a newlyweds Vaseline.

Where You Are Virtuous

You have the virtue of Justice. You treat other people fairly, even when you don't feel like it. You tell them all to get lost.

You have the virtue of Cleanliness. You keep yourself and your home clean. That is what wives are for.

You have the virtue of Sincerity. You are not deceitful, and you always have the best intentions.

Where You Are Not Virtuous

You lack the virtue of Frugality. You tend to spend and waste money freely. That is because parting is fun.

You lack the virtue of Humility. You tend to annoy people with your bragging. Having someone else tooting your horn can get you arrested.

You lack the virtue of Chastity. You aren't guarded when it comes to intimacy because you weren't born with clothes on.
Are You Virtuous?

You Are Somewhat Virtuous
You are occasionally a good person, but you often stop short at doing the right thing.
It's just a lot easier (and more fun) to be bad! You do have a reputation to uphold.

Deep down, you're a fairly good person. But no one's perfect.
You're just a lot less perfect than most people!

Where You Are Virtuous

You have the virtue of Justice. You treat other people fairly, even when you don't feel like it.

You have the virtue of tranquillity. You do your best to keep your life peaceful and calm.

You have the virtue of Order. You let each thing have it's place, and you keep your life in order.

Where You Are Not Virtuous

You lack the virtue of Chastity. You aren't guarded when it comes to intimacy.

You lack the virtue of Moderation. You are attracted to extremes of all sorts.

You lack the virtue of Sincerity. You don't tell the truth if it doesn't suit you, you might be a politician.
Are You Virtuous?

What Your Soul Really Looks Like
You are very passionate and quite temperamental. While you can be moody, you always crave comfort.

You are a grounded person, but you also leave room for imagination and dreams. You feet may be on the ground, but you're head is in the clouds.

You believe that people see you for how you are, not how you look. But deep down, you know that's not exactly true.

Your near future is in a very different place (both physically and mentally) from where you are right now.

For you, falling in love has never been easy. You can only fall for someone who is very patient and persistent.

What Your Soul Really Looks Like
You are a warm hearted and open minded person. It's easy for you to forgive and forget.

You are not a very grounded person. You prefer dreams to reality. For you, it's all about possibilities.

You see yourself with pretty objective eyes. How you view yourself is almost exactly how other people view you.

Your near future is a lot like the present, and as far as you're concerned, that's a very good thing.

For you, falling in love has never been easy. You can only fall for someone who is very patient and persistent.

No, I haven’t seen Rollerball yet. Thanks for the reminder. On Demand didn’t have it, so I’ll have to rent or buy it.

What’s this about Amero?

Do you think Mitt Romney is a rollerballer?

What Your Soul Really Looks Like
You are a wanderer. You constantly long for a new adventure, challenge, or even a completely different life.

You are not a very grounded person. You prefer dreams to reality. For you, it's all about possibilities.

You believe that people see you as larger than life and important. While this is true, they also think you're a bit full of yourself.

Your near future is a lot like the present, and as far as you're concerned, that's a very good thing.

For you, love is all about caring and comfort. You couldn't fall in love with someone you didn't trust.

It has already started with NAFTA and Jorge, Vincente Fox and Hunter from Canada. They want a North American Union and the new currency will be the Amero (both the union and the money will be fashioned after the EU). Google up the Amero and see just how far this thing has gotten. It will wipe out control points at the borders because they will be open (again styled from the EU) 14,000,000 illegals will be just a drop in the ocean. I believe that Romney may swing that way but McCain would definitely do that.

I’m doing alright, lady! How about you? It’s wicked cold and windy here — it dropped from 72 degrees this morning to the current 17 degrees right now, and it’s still dropping. I so hate winter — gimme the sunshine!! :-)

An old friend in LA says the same thing, has been for decades.

Romney has said he wanted tighter borders; I don’t remember when, though. It’s probably going to happen eventually but not too soon. You’re too close to the subject to see the whole picture.

If you googled racial populations you’d see.

You think Dems would pave over the Rio?

Pausing on a Beach

The wave sweeps to shore
to throw itself joyful upon the beach
a cascade of liquid life in its reach
then it flows back for more

Soft the night wind sings
of the day and its ever moving journey to night
when the pace of life slows and all is so right
the music of life rings

Under the stars music flows
played by those who lift up their eyes
and see the lights above span the skies
and feel life in them so

Soft sand as winds caress you
there upon the beach with one who dreams
for she is all that a hope, a heart seems
there upon the island you two
