the dragonfly lands 
                            on a gently swaying reed
                               an egret watching

On the bank, my thought is attempting to Knit a net 
To catch them

efficient feisty warrior
in stealth mode
hovers steady
deliberate

Premium Member Elusive Words

lithe light lovely words float past
escaping my touch as a butterfly does
one lands in the form of a dragonfly
or are you a damselfly?
I have no words

Premium Member Dragonfly Sour at Angel Flower

Listen to poem:
Hey Alice! Have you,
been smoking the grub's brew?
Think you are a butterfly,
perched on a flower?
Cop the glower,
of livid fire-breathing dragonfly!

Garden of Eden

Garden of Eden
Trees with fruits are laden
Birds sing gaily, beasts roam wild.

Sunflower fairy 
Chatted merry 
Spellbound the dragonfly, like a child.

Sunflower blooms gold,
cradles fairy in fold.
Marvel allures dragonfly.
Charmed, it holds her hand.
In scene so grand,
bonds of fanciful love ramify.

They say when a dragonfly lands on you 
you’ll be blessed with good luck…and prosperity…
Which is why I smile whenever that happens…

Premium Member a wisp of a thing

She came gliding in on her dragonfly steed.
Lovely and lithe, delightful indeed.
A wisp of a thing, a tiny little light might.
A pixie, a faerie, a pretty sight on this night.

Beneath deep blue skies
 the sun is spreading its warmth
           A dragonfly flies
 zooming through the summer air
      Energized in the sunlight

Premium Member Dragonfly Boys Lament

Dragonfly boy was in love with dragon girl
She had a beautiful wing with a tiny curl
He wanted to fly dance with her, give her a whirl
But she fell in love with his cousin Earl.

Senses surrounded her pulse raced, heart pounded slashing through stands of fescue. She let out a cry, then from on high, her dragonfly came to her rescue.

In the Glow of a Sunflower's Whispers

In the glow of petals bright,
A fairy rests, wings kissed by light.
A dragonfly hovers near,
Silent and still,
Time seems to stand still,
Their worlds connect without fear.

The Chameleon Moon

The chameleon moon
A tapestry of colors
Clinging to the sky
Steady rocking
From side
To side
Before catching
A sleepy
Dragonfly morsel
Using
Her elongated
Sticky red tongue

Premium Member Glimpse of Summer

against summer’s heart
    dragonfly struck a friendship
a flame of joy
          in brevity of her life span
                        she accomplished much
soothing the day lilies

A collection of ‘Love is…’ Poetry - Dragonfly


Love is unfaithful.
Love lies.
I have never had true love,
So all my love’s I despise.
