Dragonfly
By this old pond
Morning glory;
Dragonfly parade
~~~~~~~~~
Lotus flowers
Sun tan moments;
Somnolent hours
~~~~~~~~~
Fat frog sits
Atop lotus leaf;
Morning meditation
~~~~~~~~~
Here in this park
Squirrels dash;
Curious activity
~~~~~~~~~
Here for a stroll
Watch butterflies flirt;
Happy flowers smile
~~~~~~~~~
Bougainvillea shrubs
Flowering in the heat;
Tropical display
~~~~~~~~~
Busy feet trampling
Bitumen track;
Jogging around
~~~~~~~~~
Windy cascades
Through bamboo pines;
Sifting and singing
~~~~~~~~~
Sleepy moods loiter
Birds murmuring;
Stray monkeys cluster
~~~~~~~~~
Dragonfly song
Unheard melody;
Drowsy September
~~~~~~~~~
Another hazy day
Wind-blown smog;
Smell of ashes
~~~~~~~~~
Wooden bridge
Clear waters below;
Sleepy fish resting
~~~~~~~~~
