The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread LIII
Soaring Feather and Poets of The Lair | June 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...

You aren't the only hot head at the moment . . . I've been trying to make you a birthday card on the other computer and the program keeps crashing!

Oh dear, computers not working properly are enough to make one crazy, temporarily, of course.

Baseball

"Baseball is 90 percent mental. The other half is physical." - Yogi Berra

A local community club was organizing a baseball team. They could only muster eight players, and were hard put to find a ninth. In desperation, they called on a new member, a very reserved Englishman who had just moved into the neighborhood from London, to join their team.

During their first game, the Englishman came to bat. On the very first pitch, he knocked the ball out of the park.

The team members stood there, dumfounded! Unfortunately, so did the Englishman. "Run!" his teammates cried. "For Pete's sake, run!"

The Brit turned and stared at them icily. "I jolly well shan't run," he replied. "I'm perfectly willing to buy you chaps another ball."

I couldn’t say, but BEING crazy all the time is wearing to say the least!

“I don’t trust people who swear that they’re sane.”

I think we need a bit of insanity to keep from going crazy!

“Wearing on whom?”

On those who fear that anyone who has the sheer effrontery to be themselves and laugh out loud, do something silly, or (shudder), act like a loon because they feel like it, are somehow beneath them.

I’m for ‘Be a Nut for a day., everyday, myself.

An elderly couple was attending church services, about halfway through she leans over and says to her husband, 

"I just let out a silent fart. What do you think I should do?"

He replies "Put a new battery in your hearing aid."
