With savage shell-bone pride
Members of the dragonfly tribe
Carry a beautiful storm miracle
Below their flexible armour cages;
And aerobat on flicker-shine wings
That flatten the earths corners,
Bend the skies straightways up,
Fasten the sun in time and place.
Recognise the magic, please,
In the small hum-drum things;
Catch some contentment from the
Small, pleasant pulses of joy.
