The Dragonfly Whisperer

A long-tailed skimmer (Plathemis lydia) with lovely striking wings both transformed and adaptable, transforming right before my eyes Settled on my hand she's like an Alien object from heaven above she is probably weighing my soul and deciding how much it weighs Though they often perch on shoreline vegetation this one did not she came and kept me company opening space for me to smile Abundance in God's creation has me wondering about my heart how much it longs for beauty and all the things that make it whole She helped me find the positive in situations that I thought were dire from a nymph in the water to a winged adult she came for a short stay Inside my soul there is an agate that is as precious as the stars of night it is there that I will send her, to wait for me, until it gets light... Until I find the strength to do the things that I must do in this lifetime and I'll give her thanks for her visit, even if it was only for a short time.
