The Dragonflies'Lair ~Thread L~

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...

It is going well so far but it is early yet, so anything can happen. My regular job is about to drive me nuts but it is not a long drive, been really busy trying to put the fininshing touches on a proposal. Sounds like things are starting to heat up and Mookie and Iran are flexing their muscles. I have to get ready and head out the door to the weekend stint. See you later. Stay safe.

Chef Tude saves the day
Brunch is on the way
Hashbrown taters
eggs any style
all whipped up and served
with a smile, let's eat!

LOL I was going back and listening last night, too.

There is a lot of music on this thread for sure. I posted thirty tunes, Tom must have posted that many or more.

Thanks, glad you got a chance to listen and enjoy. I will leave mine up until Sunday night, so if you miss any you have until then to listen.

Both Tom and myself have lots of experience being DeeJays. ;0)

Okay by me, working folks look forward to a kick back day and music is one way to do it. Our regular posters enjoy the tunes and that is where our priorities are. Our troops and Vets enjoy poetry too, so it serves a grand audience.

We can do both here, Poetry and Musical Poetry. ;0)

We are pretty quite here most of the time, a little noise in the Lair is fine.

Much of the time I don't listen to any of the Canteen's music on Saturday, but yesterday, you two posted the kinds of music I like best. Yes, even the classical ranked among my favorites.

Not only was I up late listening to your posts, I listened to some more than twice.

That's good to know. I for one cannot stand the head banging stuff that passes for music today, however, the younger set does. For the Canteen, their target is our Troops and they are in today's music world.

I play what I like to hear, I have an eclectic range of music I enjoy. I do enjoy Classical music, Irish Tenors and Italian Tenors. ;0) A little of everything I would say.

Tom did a bang up job yesterday, thank you, Tom. He had a good selection of music.

Afternoon, tomkow!

Hey, I'm in the Dark Hour or whatever time now (8:21 p.m.) and all my lights are on, my TV's on, my computer's on and I'm trying to figure out what else I can power up.

Maybe I'll mute the TV, put the stereo on and crank up my blowdryer just for the heck of it.

I like heavy metal and some of its offspring. You two just happened to pick the stuff I like best in their categories. Is it your taste, too, I don't know. I just called it serendipity and loved the heck out of it.

Don’t know what that Hour is but I do know you’re coming home soon. Thinking of you having a great trip.
