Whispers of Angels

 Eschewing the catastrophic world
towards a tranquil place, I headed;
The heavenly aroma spread around
transported my soul into a place astound 

 A place where the music was born
A place where dawn chorus begins
A place where...

Damselflies are dainty, they are wisest of the wise.
Dragonflies a bit dumpy, much bigger than you and I.

Damselfly

Her swift and wondrous gait   enthralls
upon  the light  of lightest evening--
bedecked  in turquoise- gold  finery
sewn by earth’s intricate handiwork...
a mature nymph hovers along the pond

If I Should Find a Butterfly

If I should find a Butterfly, 
Neath the Willow tree, 
I’d recall how she’d been an ugly bug, 
But now a wondrous, sight to see. 
 
If I could talk to a Dragonfly, 
Hovering by...

Wind Eater

Naught but a maze shall carry this
bound in cloud
through the tunnels of twigs
shall freedom range to the applause of leaves

Tangency poised on the ballet of grass
such hurricane stanzas embrace
these burnished strings of delicate harp
or sigh...

Dragonfly Damsel engaging such wonder 
Discovers a world between water and land
Magical enchantment her filmy wings stand
Refracting worlds beheld from another

Iridescent gossamer winged flyer
Damselfly dance into the sun higher

Feeling An Upbeat Optimism

Emerald paradise keeps purple violets and yellow daffodils true
Possibly an enchanted nirvana, selected for my eyes alone.
Air so clean here, the monarch butterfly is singing a ditty
Joy, and hope as available as the apples dropped...

Dainty Damselfly

Such beauty and so full of life,
she's flitting to and fro,
from plant to plant to find best perch
and put herself on show.

Sprawling in the midday sun
she is a splendid sight.
Her slender abdomen dressed in
metallic blue...

Spring

Spring skips along over billowed clouds
peers down at the brown, drying glades,
many trees with branches bare, yet proud
all still in winter masquerade.

"This mustn't be," Spring cries in alarm
"where is the green, but a year ago?"
Sprinkling...

Bear is lollygagging next to wolf, who is snoring big time.
Mama deer is watering daisies, I think some are mine.
All the breads and cheese have made the animals feel tired.
Two mice are comfortable, but the...

Cinderella Damselfly

Cinderella Damselfly was inspired as she clung to the Nebraska wheat
her sparkly filigree wings were dazzled with Midwestern dew.
she clung to the stalk in a desperate lonely ignored women’s way.

Pip Fixes the Mitten

Pan’s Pip was fluttering close to the rose.
We saw her tiptoe on it, then twirling her toes.
She’s a ballerina said the hedgehog, totally smitten.
“I don’t agree,” said the brownie crawling out of a mitten.

Where did...

Tensile Wings

Fragile in no way, pliable, flexible
Delicate? Hardly. Reaching coves and corners
Getting her monarch where she needs to be

Tensile Wings
Rarely broken, tough and durable, dependable
Lifting up the faeries into the hollow of the oak tree
Flattening themselves...

It wasn’t the time to leave,

Garden Secrets

Damselfly breeze floats on a summers’ day
Carefree with love and delight in her way

Monarch butterfly arrives soon after
Ruffled marigolds hear tiny laughter

Queen of faeries says I’ll make you knighted

Full Flight

If I had my way
I would come back
as a droning dragonfly
strong and determined
or maybe a damselfly
dainty and graceful

Either way
I’d surf the sky
every hour of the day
and hover on and on
over drifting waterlilies
the whole night through
