Nature and Creation Envy

I saw a dragonfly today Skimming over the surface of a still pond It’s beauty reflecting the light Colours of blue, green opalescent delight It’s wings fluttering as it flew effortlessly It’s a sample of nature in full silent flight It dances weaves, glides and hovers with ease I wish this dragonfly was me flying freely On a filigree wing so peacefully I have a case of nature and creation envy Yet can you blame me.

I love dragonflies; I saw one yesterday, and it made me feel so happy. Any dragonfly poem is a winner, and this is certainly one.

Absolutely stunning poem I love the imagery!! I will always remain a dragonfly as my avatar and have a silver filigree brooch on the lapel of my coat so it is always with me - I wrote a poem about it, must find it and post it!:-) Into my faves:-):-) hugs jan xx
