Matthew Anish Poet I do not know?

Delicate Operation

Although our time is short
       we can reach out 
          for beauty
Yes, we can join in
nature's dance
        Over the lake 
a dragonfly hovers
   His wings moving at 
a great speed
   Although our hopes 
have been stalemated 
   Our eyes growing tired and 
bodies growing weary
    We still rejoice 
   in nature's abundance 
The natural world 
     offers hope
   A clear sky 
   illuminates the lake
The dragonfly continues to hover 
    All is not lost friend
All is not lost
