The Dragonflies'Lair ~Thread L~
Poets of The Dragonflies' Lair | March 1, 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...

Tude, I am so glad you could get your computer working..I have 4
surge protectors..They won't help if lightning strikes..I am
careless and usually don't unplug everything like I should
during a thunderstorm.

Good afternoon Dragonflies!

It was a beautiful day out today and I was able to take full advantage of it. I hope all the lovely Lairites had the same.

Oh lovely picture. It was a lovely day here as well. I was a bit tempted to do some yard work, but decided against it at this time. I am fearful that I will pull up the shoots and tender greens if I rake around now. Also, the dead leaves offer some protection.

Glad you got to enjoy the nice weather.

I went out and purchased a interruptible power supply (UPS) that I plugged both computers into. Should a sudden loss of power happen, it will hold up the computer so that it will shutdown normally. I still have a surge suppressor in the line also. As you say if lightning storm were to occur, I yank the plugs.

I think someone should train Calli to beat a big brass drum every time NYA dozes off. LOL

Please no ideas for Calli. She does other things to wake me up. I guess turnabout is fair play as I would wake her constantly when my computer was down.

Talking about protection, burying the hollyhocks in leaves today might help keep the deer away and give the plants a chance.

There were plenty of things to do without baring any delicate new growths. I cleared out a lot of the pachysandra; you can pee on that crap and won't kill it. But the deer won't eat it, so it thrives despite my enmity.

It was gorgeous out and I don't know about you but I'll have to remember it since we'll be right back into the crappy weather tomorrow and for the next 10 days or more.

Our weather is supposed to take a dive, too. March is so unsettled we just have to wait it out.

Those are cherry blossoms. The lighting and colors drew me to it.

How was your day?

I ran errands, had lunch with a friend and worked in the yard and garden. The day was serendipitous.

I just saw the weather for tomorrow afternoon and evening, two inches of snow predicted. Yikes.
