Welcome to the DragoFlies lair, sleeper-has-awakened.

I had to do it. He has a powerful fan base. I was getting threatening emails. A Vast Short Dog Conspiracy. Ping any Barney fans you know.



Second Dog

It’s tough to be the younger dog,
But he still does it great.
He’s always quick to chase the ball,
For playtime he ‘s not late.
He’s short and fast and full of fun,
Yes he’s a happy dog.
He lives there in the White House,
And he’s a cam’ra hog.
George W. is his best friend,
And Spotty likes him too.
This little guy’s named Barney,
And fans, he has a few.

This and That

Ancient Greeks and Romans believed asparagus had medicinal qualities for helping prevent bee stings and relieve toothaches.



In the game of craps, the slang term "Little Phoebe" refers to a roll of 5 on the dice.

History Bit

In "Hawthorne," Henry James wrote, "It takes a great
deal of history to produce a little literature."

[Soaring Feather]

Will abstinence count
with love
now
whispering desire
in his ears?

Sad poem. I hate to think of the butterfly caged.

Good songs, thanks.

[snippy_about_it]

That's nice CG. Great picture too.

[snippy_about_it]

Beautiful tapestry feather.

[Soaring Feather]

Thank You snippy.

[snippy_about_it]

LOL. The Barney poem is so cute.

[snippy_about_it]

time passes and the fog lifts
the dream like state is fleeting
but my memories of you remain vivid

the feeling they give me is enchanting
how wonderful we were
and will be again




my desire for you does not wane
it is as constant and strong as ocean waves in winter


as sure as flowers bloom in springtime
my love for you continues to blossom



with every thought of you
with every memory of us

Today is Thursday, Dec. 18, the 352nd day of 2003 with 13 to go.
The moon is waning.
The morning stars are Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto.
The evening stars are Venus,
Mars, Mercury, Neptune and Uranus.

[Soaring Feather]

Absolutely beautiful snippy. Wonderful graphics emphasizing the words.

[snippy_about_it]

Thank you feather. I'm just glad I finally found a few minutes to write.

[Soaring Feather]

Yes, it's hard enough to do when there are so many demands on your time.

[SAMWolf]

You are one of the best "mushy" poets I know. Between you and Trike the Lairs windows are constantly steamed up.
