Dragonflies

Flashing glitters of silver, a swarm of

dragonflies cavorted in shafts of sunlight

piercing shadows from the maple at the

center of our garden. They had arrived

to cavort in the sun for a morning of fun,

diving, twisting darting sparked silver

that glittered like snow in a swirling wind.

Gleeful at full throttle, their dance continued

until the shadows went home to bed.
