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...

I wait, for the time draws nigh
and soon all changes as promised long ago
patient must I be in time’s eternal flow
before my hopes are free to fly

I await the trumpet’s call
when Angels wing over head in splendored flight
and day breaks forth upon a new day’s golden light
and we rise above an Angel’s fall

Tired is the soul that’s lived too long
oh how it seeks to reach out for that sweet call
and bow in humbleness before the Father of us all
as soft and sweet Angles lift their song

Fill thy heart with gladness told
for weary am I a traveler on this mortal plain
where the horizon is an eternity away in pain
set my foot upon thy path so bold

Good morning everyone.

the moon thinned to a thread,
insects singing."

Would you believe it’s warmer in Anchorage Alaska then it is here in Chicagoland?

....so much for global warming!

[Allegra]

Global warming is SO confusing!

[Kathy in Alaska]

It is the pits!!! Probably continue til the weekend, with possible rain. YUCK! YUCK!! YUCK!!!

[Allegra]

If it makes you feel any better, we’re on our second day in a row of sandstorms. I HATE sandstorms. High winds with sand blowing into everything. Yecchh!

[Kathy in Alaska]

OK....you have it multiple times worse. There is no escaping the sand.
I am at least not on the roads most of the time.

You know, a can of chocolate like that on my desk would just about stop all creative processes for hours!!!

The scent of lilies
hang over the garden dark
as Herons cry sweet
