Dragon Fly Mystery
Each morning I watch the dragon fly hunt above the water way
For what does he search so early in the day
Does some unsuspecting creature lurk above the pool in the
early morning light
Or perhaps it is thirst which draws him to this flight
Every now and then a curious bird perches on the fence
Their mouths watering at the sight of him but intimidated by
his diligence
A rival dragon fly swoops down in search of the same
illusive treasure no doubt
Our warrior dismisses him, his dominance pronounced
For what does this mighty soldier so steadily seek
Perhaps his own reflection asks him the questions whose answers
I too seek
