My Dragonfly 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...

Painting a house is a science; Sorry yours is taking so long.

Sonnet 83: I never saw that you did painting need

|
| |
I never saw that you did painting need,
And therefore to your fair no painting set;
I found, or thought I found, you did exceed
That barren tender of a poet's debt;
And therefore have I slept in your report,
That you yourself being extant well might show
How far a modern quill doth come too short,
Speaking of worth, what worth in you doth grow.
This silence for my sin you did impute,
Which shall be most my glory, being dumb,
For I impair not beauty, being mute,
When others would give life and bring a tomb.
There lives more life in one of your fair eyes,
Than both your poets can in praise devise.
William Shakespeare |

Did you say that someone was having a birthday? I do believe that number was revealed somewhere in a recent post but I am too much of a gentleman to reveal that number. Happy Birthday Meg!
To: Soaring Feather
Thank you.
Like a thief in the night
that steals before daylight
and takes the coveted 50ish prize
before everyones eyes
and the thief is gone with a click of the mouse
and returns to his house
to steal another day
just in case another opportunity comes about
to give cause for him to scream and shout.

Lovely, Soaring Feather..I have had a great day of garden strolling around a historic house, river watching, touring a truly wild looking wildflower gardem at our big municipal park. I gave myself a gift by doing this.

[“It is the beautiful bird which gets caged”]
That’s true, and it brought to mind an old, old song;
Bird In A Guilded Cage
She’s only a bird in a gilded cage,
A beautiful sight to see.
You may think she’s happy and free from care
She’s not, though she seems to be.
‘Tis sad when you think of her wasted life
For youth cannot mate with age.
And her beauty was sold for an old man’s gold
She’s a bird in a gilded cage.
To: MEG33
I know what you mean. Remember that it is only a number.
To: NY Attitude
Well, now your muse is kicking in with both feet
even writing pomes about who you beat
in the silent darkness of the night
you snatch and grab the fifty just like an Ahab!
LOL
To: MEG33
That’s wonderful Meg, we need to give ourselves gifts! I would love to have joined you in the wild flower garden. ;0)
