Gifts Of A Dragonfly

On bended knee, I close my eyes
paying homage to the magic which
comes only from the magestical
dragonfly.

I draw upon his strength and
agility. To change and blend
into my surroundings, to soar
in any direction with the
greatest of ease and the
mightiest of strength.

Emerging from higher realms,
I open my eyes with a renewed,
deeper self-realization
and spiritual maturity.

Gifts which can come only
from this iridescent beauty.
