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.
