Ode to a Dragonfly
It’s almost painful to remember
Chilly days in winter’s cold
I was still so young then
Still so vulnerable
Without knowledge of this truth
Blooming in the spring
I was a golden ray
Of shining happiness
Still so innocent
Without knowledge of this truth
I have memories
Of you watching over me
Hovering...
Shimmering...
While I skipped over stepping stones
I could not have known
How unified we were
We were both new
To our home, our Earth
I just glanced and passed by
Where have those days gone?
Tears shed over scraped knees
No thought of past or future
Only here, now
In this moment
Carefree and careless
Joyful, dreaming
Make-believing
All tears cried, that is past
This is now
Tell me, my friend
Why is it
That dark shadows
Hang over me today
While you still shine so brightly?
What have I lost
After all these years
That you have not?
Why is it...
That I now ask these questions?
I see you
And see what I must do
I must hover in the light
Shimmer as you do
Question nothing
Live each moment
As it arrives
In the now
Nothing else matters
My childhood returns to me
You may have passed away
Since those days long gone
But that is past
All tears cried
This is now
Today you live within me
My soul is winged
Just as you were
I love this life’s each second
For soon the light will fade
Chilly days in winter’s cold
I was still so young then
Still so vulnerable
Without knowledge of this truth
Blooming in the spring
I was a golden ray
Of shining happiness
Still so innocent
Without knowledge of this truth
I have memories
Of you watching over me
Hovering...
Shimmering...
While I skipped over stepping stones
I could not have known
How unified we were
We were both new
To our home, our Earth
I just glanced and passed by
Where have those days gone?
Tears shed over scraped knees
No thought of past or future
Only here, now
In this moment
Carefree and careless
Joyful, dreaming
Make-believing
All tears cried, that is past
This is now
Tell me, my friend
Why is it
That dark shadows
Hang over me today
While you still shine so brightly?
What have I lost
After all these years
That you have not?
Why is it...
That I now ask these questions?
I see you
And see what I must do
I must hover in the light
Shimmer as you do
Question nothing
Live each moment
