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...

Happy Friday To The Lair

Enjoying all the great graphics and poetry..and our warm days.
Sunny weekend and 70s coming up here. Stay warm and enjoy
your snow.

[Lady Jag]

Love that thong!

[Soaring Feather]

Great Iceman graphic! Cool!!

Did you author the poem??

[Soaring Feather]

Those tape figures ARE amazing. I’m curious about the process.

I am thinking the sculptors used a clear mold to shape the figures.

[Soaring Feather]

Hi Meg, awww so sweet. Love the Polar Bears.

We are shivering again, the snow stay on the ground, cause it is cold!!

Meg, I am curious about your trees, the ones you trim with berries, what is the name of the tree?

[Soaring Feather]

Howdy NYA, wow came up for a breather, eh?

Well, you have to do what you have to do. ;0)

Nice to see you stop around when you can.

[Soaring Feather]

Knitting, very nice poetry. Both are well written, I especially like the first one you posted.

Keep up the good work. [:0)

[Lady Jag]

Of course I wrote the poem, it's why it's not attributed. ;-)

[Lady Jag]

The mold would be expensive...

[Soaring Feather]

Well, you should have! ;0)

[Lady Jag]

It’s lame.

[Soaring Feather]

What if they used Styrofoam, isn’t that kinda cheap?

[Soaring Feather]

So is a lot of the stuff I write, I sign it anyway. ;0)

[MEG33]

Youpon Holly

It is a Texas native. We had them growing wild on our property where
we once had a lake cabin in Central Texas.

[MEG33]

I like it!

[Soaring Feather]

Gee, they are so pretty. No wonder you don’t like to loose the berries. Brilliant color!

[Lady Jag]

Styrofoam breaks easily if handled roughly and it’d be hard to tape it gently. I like the work.

“The mold would be expensive...”

Not really, I often made small molds and a ‘figure’ formed from say easily carved balsa wood or plaster, a little RTV (room temp. vulcanizing silicone for the mold and you were ready. There is a great little book on making small molds in the Eastwood Antique car catalog that’s awesome. Easy to do and costs pennies with a bit of ingenuity.
