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

Posted on 08/01/2008 6:23:53 AM PDT by 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...

Thanks, Meg! I just got this one, and am saving it, too....

Things Dogs Should Remember

I will not play tug-of-war with Dad’s underwear when he’s on the toilet.

The garbage collector is NOT stealing our stuff.

I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I’m lying under the coffee table.

I will not roll my toys behind the fridge.

I must shake the rainwater out of my fur BEFORE entering the house.

I will not eat the cats’ food, before or after they eat it.

I will stop trying to find the few remaining pieces of clean carpet in the house when I am about to throw up.

I will not throw up in the car.

I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc.

I will not lick my human’s face after eating animal poop.

Kitty box crunchies are not food.

I will not eat any more socks and then redeposit them in the backyard after processing.

The diaper pail is not a cookie jar.

I will not chew my human’s toothbrush and not tell them.

I will not chew crayons or pens, especially not the red ones, or my people will think I am hemorrhaging.

When in the car, I will not insist on having the window rolled down when it’s raining outside.

We do not have a doorbell. I will not bark each time I hear one on TV.

I will not steal my Mom’s underwear and dance all over the back yard with it.

The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are Mom & Dad’s laps.

My head does not belong in the refrigerator.

I will not bite the officer’s hand when he reaches in for Mom’s driver’s license and car registration.

Oh Ma, I just love Jackie Wilson!! Do you have Deep Purple?

I looked high and low for that song. Never did find it.

Thanks so much for the tunes.

"P.S. It’s another twitchy one, too."

Yeah, I just brewed up another pot of coffee.

Edgy

Kinda nervous, you can tell,
Some things just don’t set too well.
Strident voices, cursing tones,
Slamming doors and ringing phones,

I’m edgy.

People spook me, much too often,
I have tried my edge to soften.
Pills there are but what are they?
Chemical ties to a rocking chair.

I’m edgy.

Newspapers can set me off,
“Truth be told!”, they make me scoff.
I hear voices in my car,
It can drive me much too far.

I’m edgy.

I sit down and slow my pace,
Pit stop in the human race.
Take a look, and smile at me,
It helps with my humanity.

I’m edgy.
