The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread LI
The Poets of The Lair | April 2, 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...

I remember my geekier friends actually using slide rules in high school. I gave my husband one of the first hand size calculators. It was from Texas Instrument and was the size of a thin brick.

Thanks, LJ. Yes, I am Ku-waiting to go home. ;-)

I slept for nine hours and now I'm going to go sit and listen to the Persian Gulf for a while. Much nicer sound than "Incoming-take-cover-take-cover-take-cover" coming from the Big Voice, followed by uglier sounds.

My heart, thoughts are prayers are with my "family" in Baghdad.

Thank you for all of your support.
