DRAGONFLY

Its ponderous wings slowly and rhythmically expanded.
The sun drying small droplets of glistening spray,
The river sweeps in a majestic curve, and the sun is burnished
gold.
Air sweet with flower scent and the gentle floating seed.
Slowly a sound like beating drums lifts her into the sky,
It was a calm sky rolling clouds were like panoramic opals.
The golden rays of the sun wreathed the water as if it was in dancing
flames,
Dart&;#8230;dart&;#8230;dart&;#8230;dart&;#8230;
Then a rest or a place to stop and feed.
Birds assembled in vast white flocks, the whole atmosphere
changed,
To a squawking frenzy of sound mixed with the gentle beating of
drums&;#8230;
Dart&;#8230;dart&;#8230;dart&;#8230;dart&;#8230;
Wings slowly and rhythmically expanded.
