Good morning, everyone, time of dream of Dragonflies!



The Dragon-Fly


Life (priest and poet say) is but a dream;
I wish no happier one than to be laid
Beneath a cool syringa’s scented shade,
Or wavy willow, by the running stream,
Brimful of moral, where the dragon-fly,
Wanders as careless and content as I.

Thanks for this fancy, insect king,
Of purple crest and filmy wing,
Who with indifference givest up
The water-lily’s golden cup,
To come again and overlook
What I am writing in my book.
Believe me, most who read the line
Will read with hornier eyes than thine;
And yet their souls shall live for ever,
And thine drop dead into the river!
God pardon them, O insect king,
Who fancy so unjust a thing!


Walter Savage Landor

~Happy Weekend Everyone~

Lovely, Ms Feather!
It's a beautiful day here..I am not even going to check on
how hot it may get. I'm enjoying watching my hummingbird
glisten in the sun.

Well they’ll stone you when you try to be so good
They’ll stone you just like they said they would
They’ll stone you when you’re trying to go home
Then they’ll stone you when you live all alone
But I would not feel so all alone everybody must get stoned

Well they’ll stone you when you’re walking on the street
They’ll stone you when you’re trying to keep your seat
They’ll stone you when you’re walking on the floor
They’ll stone you when you’re walking to the door
But I would not feel so all alone everybody must get stoned

They’ll stone you when you’re at the breakfast table
They’ll stone you when you’re young and able
They’ll stone you when you’re trying to make a buck
[ Everybody Must Get Stoned lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]
They’ll stone you and then they’ll say “good luck”
But I would not feel so all alone everybody must get stoned

Well they’ll stone you if you say that it’s the end
Then they’ll stone you and then they’ll come back again
They’ll stone you when you’re riding in your car
They’ll stone you when you’re playing your guitar
Yes but I would not feel so all alone everybody must get stoned

Well, they’ll stone you when you’re all alone
They’ll stone you when you’re walking home
They’ll stone you and they’ll say they are brave
They’ll stone you when you’re sent down in your grave
But I would not feel so all alone everybody must get stoned
