Dragonfly | |
a part of the scenery of wetlands, lakes, and swamps escaping my notice . . . the flash of wings creating a backdrop for the whole picture of natural waters
Then one day I began to look a host of details revealed a myriad of colors, shapes, and forms tiny damsels in red, green, and blue skimmers darting from perches prunose bodies on clear or spotted wings cruisers, emeralds, and darners incessantly patrolling in flight
Amazed that I’d missed this spectacle whole years spent in ignorance not seeing the trees for the forest awakened, I had found that sometimes the joy of new discovery rides on dragonfly wings
