The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread LI

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...

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE:

Sister Mary Ann, who worked for a home health agency, was out making her rounds visiting homebound patients when she ran out of gas. As luck would have it, an Exxon Gasoline station was just a block away.
 

She walked to the station to borrow a gas can and buy some gas. The attendant told her that the only gas can he owned had been loaned out, but she could wait until it was returned. Since Sister Mary Ann was on the way to see a patient, she decided not to wait and walked back to her car.
 

She looked for something in her car that she could fill with gas and spotted the bedpan she was taking to the patient. Always resourceful, Sister Mary Ann carried the bedpan to the station, filled it with gasoline, and carried the full bedpan back to her car.
 

As she was pouring the gas into her tank, two Baptists watched from across the street. One of them turned to the other and said,
'If it starts, I'm turning Catholic.'

Good morning Ms. Feather. The sun is not up yet in my neck of the woods but hopefully it will be up and smiling soon. Of course I will be inside and probably won’t see it. It will be darker when I leave work than when I go in. Hope that all is well.

We have gorgeous sunshine today but it remains a tad chilly.

For many years I worked in labs with no windows, ugh,at the end of the work day it was like going from a cave into sudden daylight -blinded me most of the time.

All is well, thank you. Things are greening up around here now. I watched the trees bud the day it went to 61 degrees.

Good to see you, FR has not been without problems ;0)

Tom, that's fabulous- I see a poem there.
Let's all have some fun with Tom's poem everyone add a line or more.

I stayed up one night,
wondering where the sun went to...
then in the morning,it dawned on me..............


that I looked like a fright
certainly much better by moonlight
where things go bump in the night
I scare myself with dreadful images
as the scrimmage line gets contiguous

I'll leave it there LOL.

Not poured in my ear
But here in my spout,
So that I can holler,
And begin to shout.
If given enough,
Over time of course,
I can forget the silliness
Of my glorious divorce.

Must be an onerous whench...

Tomkow


Here here, Tom needs a BEER
his tongue is tasting the amber liquid
he languishes over, chips in dishes
Buffalo Wings dripping with Blue Cheese
the Cubbies on the tube, and Tom is free as the breeze.
