~The Dragon Flies' Lair~ VIII
January 29, 2004 | bentfeather, Poets of The Dragon Flies' Lair

Posted on 01/28/2004 9:53:03 PM PST by 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 I...

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...

I've wondered where you got your handle. Now I know. :)

You mean you only had -15 this morning? You're lucky!

Not in terms of your job, of course. I have a number of friends who are firefighters and they tell me it's just miserable in the wintertime.

My thermometer said -15 this a.m. It's supposed to be colder tonight, and even colder on Friday night.

Yes, I'm an avid "Emergency" fan... hence the nickname.

It is. While I'm not a "full-timer" it's still just as miserable.. LOL

I had a friend who used to tell me

"Wish in one hand and crap in the other. See which one fills up first"

He sort of had a crappy outlook on life.

Wishing is one of the things that makes us human and sometimes is a great motivator.

Just a wee little plagiarism. Sorry.

Hold my breath,
hold my heart.
These two things
shall never part.
Together they will always be,
but not so with you & me.
Though your heart is cold as winter snow,
please hold me till I can let you go.
