The Dance of the Dragonfly

The dragonfly danced on guilded wing

Against the twilight sky as the sun dipped low.

Above our heads, he flittered high

As we watched in awe, from down below.

He came to say a last goodbye

But also just to say hello

As the sky grew dusk on that painted day

To the heavens gate he soon would go.

To the music he danced above us high

To delight us in our sorrow

The dragonfly gracefully called our names

One last time, before he’d go.

A year in time,  he danced once more, 

To the cherished glee of a wedding day.

He danced just to let us know

He was with us still on the sun’s golden ray.

To the bride he had come on her special day

To wish her well in wedded bliss.

The dragonfly danced, with us once more

Then he flew up to the sky,
With one last kiss.
