The Dragonflies' Lair~Thread XXXXI
Poets of the Dragonflies' Lair | August 9, 2007 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 08/06/2007 3:44:50 AM PDT by Soaring Feather





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...

The coins are well before World War I. For the fun of it I looked up Germany 1910 and found nothing. From 1890 to 1914 nothing happened. Didn’t have too much time to devote to it and wonder if it was a time of peace.

You drive by nice.

Thank you for the wonderful music yesterday. I got to enjoy it, but not to thank you for it.

Beautiful Barbra Olson
six years ago you went to heaven
The horror of that day I can not write,
but Barbara dear heart,
I miss you terribly!

Many candles were lit for you
many tears were shed for you
today my heart weeps for you
today my heart weeps
for your family, for all the
families whose members
never came home.

Brave Lady Barbara,
today you wear a crown
of freedom and glory
you walk on jeweled streets
in rich sweet flower gardens
You Barbara know no pain.

You fought your good fight
calling Ted from the plane
you did walk the last mile
with bravery and determination
just as you walked through life.

Now dear heart
your beautiful face
will always be beautiful
your laughter always
like chimes
We take peace
in knowing you're safe
and nothing will harm you again.
You're safe in the arms of Jesus.

bentfeather (c) September 2001

Good morning, Meg!!

She was indeed! I miss her too, she was so full of life, bubbly, fun, and yet so serious. I have her book, “Hell to Pay” about Hillary Clinton. Barbara was fearless.

Love the little graphic you posted, how is your back feeling today?

My daughter has her book and I read it there.
So far no big pain today..I just must be careful about computer time..Even in the bed with my laptop I get in trouble.I’m just going through a siege and it will get better..It always does.

I totally know what you mean! Just rest, Meg do you keep you knees higher than your hips when you rest. A couple of pillows underneath your knees helps tremendously.Takes the strain off your lower back.

I tell you Lady I have been crying all day, I watched some videos of those horrible moments as the first plane hit the World Trade Center, then the second plane. If I have ever experienced a surreal moment, that was an entire day of feeling not alive.
I am sure I am not unique in my memories or feelings. We were under attacked by a foreign power-it was nearly unbelievable.

We lost more people during 9/11 than at Pearl Harbor. For some reason it appears that we are doing a very measured response when compared to WW II. I am still waiting for the other shoe to drop from the radical muslims. Too bad that the persons Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton are not held responsible for their real lack of backbone.

What’s sad is how many Americans so easily put it out of their minds.
