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 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...

You mean for decor??
Well, I am going to make the one curtain from deep, rich, rust velvet with black lace over the velvet. I have silver knobs for the shower rod. I will get other silver accents pieces. Towel bars, paper holder, etc.
For the walls, I think I am going to use a light tone of rust, very light. Then over that I will put stencil art work. I have a huge template for a Grecian Urn which I will put close to the floor. The floor is a light background tile.
I may have to experiment with the wall color, cause it's dark in there and the light rust may be too, dark.
I will also be using a lot of wicker baskets for holding things.

Well the rust sounds like fun.I have to work with yellow and cream tiles that are down on the floor but we are getting new shower and basin and toilet.He wants the basin like the new bowl effect.Our back bathroom is very small but I like the basket idea too.

Baskets are great for odds and ends.
The carpenter built a closet, something I did not have before. This will hold a multitude of stuff and out of sight.
I got all new fixtures for the bathroom, new shower, toilet, and pedestal washbowl.
Cream is a good color to work with, anything goes with it. Can you paint over the existing tiles??
If you could paint them a cream color, you could use Maroon as a second color.
Third color optional I would guess.

Wings
The wings beat down like canopies, as tonnage goes to flight,
And we our grips secure again, prepared to show our might.
The castle keep looks lovely in the slanting morning light,
As brisk clean air goes whistling by, and dragons join to fight.
The struggle, not in earnest, but meaningful the same,
Gives each a chance to stay in form, and play a warlike game.
There was a time when dragons died, and men were slain for years,
But Peace will reign now, as we find, our strength allays our fears.
They challenge us -- we meet the call, and then the threat is passed,
No one now seeks to plunder, for fortunes once amassed.
Defenses stand at ready, lest temptation once more rise,
And fill the hearts of men for war, with dragons in the skies.
Each keeps to his own keep these days, though trade carts slowly rumble,
And festivals and merriment keeps thirsty blades at humble.
Our Peace has been secured for us. We have no fear of war,
Security is commonplace, when dragons guard the door.
