Wings time the rhythm
Other insects open up—
Fervent orchestra
Of legs, shake on pond.
Natural voices— to mates;
Song worthy of Bach.

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

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.

you’ll be blessed with good luck…and prosperity…
Which is why I smile whenever that happens…

Dragonfly at play
Stained glass wings lift and sway
Dancing with the breeze
On the stem he gently sits
A small beauty for this day

Personification
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

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.

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.

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.

Peer through green rushes
Dragonfly flies along land
Life continues on.

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

a flame of joy
in brevity of her life span
