I caught a glimpse of something bright ,

font: Papyrus

 

 

Peripherally flitting by,

I caught a glimpse of something bright,

a shimmer like the stars at night,

a dancing, daring damselfly.

 

She swooped above me in an arc,

and came to rest right on my shoulder;

what a vision, to behold her

eyes so large and dark.

 

She was there to speak in whisper-

She lingered with me sping and summer,

while I tried hard to become her

friend; she left. And now I miss her.
