dragonfly cannot leave yet
Iridescent wings of rainbow hues
Flitter amongst the lily pads
Will she light or is this a drive by?
Dragonfly sighs upon finding the delicate pinks
Their yellow middles calling to her shy side
She decides to stay for a few minutes
The frogs go silent; no more croaking
There is a delicate fragrance in the air
Is it cherry blossoms or the lily pads themselves?
Dragonfly cannot leave yet.
She feels rested in this tranquil place.
