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...

On any other day but St. Paddy's, the last bloke'd be Scot.

 An Irishman, Englishman and Scotsman go into a pub and each order a
 pint of Guinness.  Just as the bartender hands them over, three flies
 buzz down and one lands in each of the pints.  The Englishman looks
 disgusted, pushes his pint away and demands another pint. The
 Scotsman picks out the fly, shrugs, and takes a long swallow. The
 Irishman reaches in to the glass, pinches the fly between his fingers
 and shakes him while yelling, Spit it out, ya bastard!  Spit it out!"

AN OLD IRISH TOAST

May your neighbors respect you,
Trouble neglect you,
The angels protect you,
and heaven accept you.

Goodnight all

Good morning everyone!


Flowers have spoken to me more than I can tell in written words.
They are the hieroglyphics of angels,
loved by all men for the beauty of their character,
though few can decipher even fragments of their meaning.

Their vine is not my vine

So you really think it a shortcut do ya?
Only if sheol was your home
Me, I’m not thinking I’m Romeo
And all the ladies just leave me alone

And tell me, Do you really think he was wise
He was writing to you from his hell
Had all he could have and it wasn’t enough
Like being soulless in the depths of a well

But yet he wrote, but how many heard
And how many still run to their way
All bad things have to come to an end
Like the earth has to turn night unto day

All you that forgot your first love, your God
And worshiped the work of your hands
See if they can save you now
I see that so few understand

All the kingdoms of glory beneath contempt
All offered for just one life and soul
What will you have when you lose it to them
When it’s gone and you’re helpless in sheol

Confound their language, scatter them far
Cause them to not find the door
Their evil is full, recover the wool
So they see that they’ve started a war

Another earth, another heaven
But I need me some vengeance first
Some want power, glory, riches
Only vengeance can quench this thirst

The weather is not so bad here. Looks like we are in for rain and I did see a possible flooding alert.

Nothing to worry about for me. Our temps are nearing the 40s so we have warmed up.
