~The Dragon Flies' Lair~Thread XIII~
June 13, 2004 | bentfeather and Poets of The Lair

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...

Thanks for letting me play with everyone! It's been fun. We'll have to do it again in a few hours!

*HUGS*

Good night Mama!

Sleep well! Sleep long! Just get some sleep.

I'll volunteer to babysit for you when my kids grow up and get a job. Hehe!

For real nonsense, I rely on my subconscious.

I think I'll go place the call...

Goodnight folks.

Diver Dave posted this at the Freeper Foxhole and I have his permission to share it at the Lair.

My colors may be a bit faded
and the winds have loosed a thread or two
But the Stars and Stripes still proudly fly
To receive their humble due.

You may be a "virtual" idiot, but you are not a complete idiot.

I can see that you are making progress, though.

I have forgotten more than most people will ever know. In a drunken stupor I am more than a match for any sober democrat. That said. "I can never be a complete idiot because I don't like the DNC platform."

For what it's worth, "Babe" Didrikson's real name was Mildred.

My real name is Alice. But friends call me Mildred. I can't explain it.



What's in a Name?

The first letter is on the front,
The last one's on the end.
There's usually, at least one more,
But that rule, it can bend.
Like Bo or Di etcetera,
It matter's not to me.
A name is just another word,
The person's who I see.
So call me Dave or NicknamedBob,
Or Mildred if you like.
If I don't like the name you call,
Tis on your head I'll strike.

Conspiracy Guy aka Mildred 6/14/2004
