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...

She was just a “Moonshiner’s daughter” but I love her still.

and now for a bit of Irish poetry

It were in da dark around Black Rock hit be,
along da moonless nights on da Irish Sea,
where smugglers took out ta kegs o whiskey
‘n brought hin French crates ‘o guns ya see

Fearing ta chance ‘o a watching Orange spy
ta coast we’d ‘unt fer day an’ night
ta prevent them a taking all wit sword or lie
we’d stand ta keep our bloody Irish Rights

Damn ta English King, ‘n damn ‘is lies
fer ‘e’s not mine ‘n on dat I swears
its ta many who ‘as lost hall ‘n died
‘n freedom’s fer ‘im who ‘as guts ta dare!

Being driven crazy by all the various things that have to get done but it is a short drive. Chest still moving in and out so I guess that is a good thing. How are you doing with the heat and humidity? I understand that the temps and the moisture content are quite high. Be well.

Thanks, I was able to get one of the a/c up and running, a big difference and relief.

Take it easy now, don’t get crazy, we have enough of that in the Lair. LOL

I know with high humidity, it makes one feel like there taking a shower with their clothes on. Glad to hear that you have at least 1 a/c going.

Oh yes, it was very oppressive this morning, I had to open some windows just for air. By noon we were sweltering.

Just waiting for Saturday night for the concession speech from Hitlery and her telling Obama that “I am going to get you Sucka” and at the last moment run as an independent for POTUS. The VP slot would not go well with her.
