Summer Patrol
SUMMER PATROL
OF A SUMMER EVENING IN THE COOLING OF TWILIGHT, I WAS CONTEMPLATING THE
COMPLETION OF MY LONG-AWAITED CABIN.
WHILE ADMIRING CLOUD PATTERNS, I NOTICED A CONSTANT HUM
AND FLASHES OF FLORESCENT BLUE AS DRAGONFLIES FLEW BY IN A
FORMATION MADE BY NATURES DREAM.
I WONDERED…WERE THEY HEADED FOR THEIR ROOSTING PLACE OR A NIGHTLY MEETING TO FEAST TOGETHER ON THE UNUSUAL PRESENCE OF MOSQUITO’S
IN THIS HIGH DESERT VALLEY?
THE RUN-OFF LAKE SHRINKS INWARD, ALMOST A MIRAGE.
IT SEEMED TO ME AS IF THE DRAGONFLIES WERE ON PATROL…BITTY GUARDIANS
IN THEIR REALITY. THEIR SHIMMERING IRIDESCENCE A BECON IN THE TWILIGHT MONSOON SKIES.
