Just down the road
behind the tall trees,
down in the valley
adrift on the breeze;
there’s a place to
behold that will light up your eyes,
it’s the secret
place of dragonflies.
There’s every color
and every hue,
sliding on currents
like dragonflies do.
Stretching their
wings to the top of the skies,
hundreds and
thousands of dragonflies.
You’ll never forget
this glorious site,
such beauty and
color, a feast for the eyes.
I watch for a while,
as this splendor unfolds,
a once in a
lifetime, for my heart to behold.
Too soon they are
gone, and I’m left with the dream.
Guess they’ve all
run away to do dragonfly things.
But tucked in my
heart for always, to stay,
is the beauty and
grace that I've witnessed this day.
