Dragonfly, elegant and bold
Unlike some other insects his wings don’t fold
Red and blue, beauty to behold
Perched on a petal of a marigold
......then he moves on

Dragonfly, quiet and still
Resting on a leaf of a daffodil
He takes time to sit and think
He flies onto a birdbath to have a drink
......then he moves on

Dragonfly, pretty and bright
Sunshine on his wings, such a beautiful sight
Dragonfly, pure delight
Visiting my garden ’til the fading twilight
......then he moves on
