The Dragonflies'Lair ~ Thread LV ~ Anniversary Thread
Poets of the Lair | August 1, 2008 | Soaring Feather

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...

Every time I think of Texas I start speaking with a Texas accent. I can’t help myself.


Ayup!

You Are Black Tea
You have a bold personality. You're not afraid of simply being yourself.
You have the courage to speak the truth. You are fearless in your actions.

You come off as a bit intimidating and unapproachable. Only confident people are attracted to you.
You don't try to scare off anyone. You're just an intense person!
What Kind of Tea Are You?

Aren’t you concerned that Tomkow is on his way to straighten you out?

Nah, not one bit.

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE:

A man went to the dental surgeon to have a tooth pulled.

The dentist pulled out a needle full of Novacain to numb the area.

"No way! No needles! I hate needles!" the patient shouted.

The dentist started to hook up the laughing gas and the man again complained, "I can't do the gas thing! The thought of having a gas mask on is suffocating to me!"

The Dentist then asked if the man had any objection to taking a pill.

"No," the patient said, "I am fine with pills."

The dentist said, "Here is a Viagra tablet." The patient replied: "Wow! I didn't know Viagra works as a pain pill!".

"It doesn't," said the dentist, "but it will give you something to hold onto when I pull out your tooth."

Good Morning To The Lair


Cape Elizabeth ~ Maine

The Light~ by Hattie Vose Hall

I am the light, holding
Nightly my torch on high;
Under me surge the waters,
Over me bends the sky.

Year after year I stand here
Holding my steady light,
Sending its ray of comfort
Into the darkest night.

Many a man has served me,
Tending the Light with care,
Many a vanished footstep
Passed by my winding stair.

Years pass and men pass with them,
Never my light grows dim,
One hands the torch to another,
Others will follow him.

So are the centuries moving,
Still serving men am I,
Constant through gales of winter
Calm beneath summers sky.

Lights are the hope of seamen,
Warning of rock and shoal,
We are the danger-stations,
We are the sea-patrol!
