The Dragonflies'Lair~Thread LIII

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...

Yup. I finally arrived. They may be short, but the higher latitudes make for a much longer day.

Oh no, Hunchback of Notre Dame is my favorite movie. It is a shame so many of the old movies are damaged or lost. Did the tape warehouse of these movies suffer damage? They were the back up so I heard.

My muses made that graphic fast and as I worked it I wondered why I don’t get inspired to make a wad of dough that easily.

The Dotted i

It was a while ago you know,
That someone crossed a tee,
And as a consequence began,
The process that became a me.

A bit of punctuation, really,
Nothing of immortal consequence,
Punctiliously pointing out the jots,
And tittles in the whence,

By which a record is recorded,
And another page is added, to get ...
Another book for yet another shelf,
That no one's got around to reading yet.

So if you are concerned that history,
Has expectations, and that you have to do it,
Like me, you will have had a humble start,
And your i will soon have gotten a round tuit.
