Dragonfly Dreams

Upon your wings of crystal blue 
a morning drop of dew 
although the sky is watching you 
you know, I am there too 
Oh dragonfly of love, how do you do 
I wonder as I sit and rue 
about the things I never knew 
and all this beauty, oh so new 
Of all the sanctuaries of the world 
you chose the one that has been pearled 
by an artist's loving hand unfurled,  
I am beholden to, things I have unlearned; 
In this moment I appreciate the beauty 
of a simple thing, that draws me  
at the edge of dawn I am always free 
to dance with this dragonfly and just be
Upon a sky of crystal blue a dragonfly wing of every hue, 
although its made of old glass, every day feels bran new.

This to me is such a tranquil poem. Every line is prettier than the one before it Mystic. As we age the simpler things we hold dear become more apparent, don't they? What a nice subject to write a poem about, this sparkly little puddle dipper. I love your last two sentences and I am delighted to have found this delicate write.
