Dragonfly (For Darlene)

Darting in and out of common weeds
Came some beautiful nymph like
Dragonfly, floating on air, caught
By peripheral chance, an image
Only the mind could illustrate,
Dark was the world before she
Eased the eyes back open,
Transfiguring two souls to one.
Delicate Tonbo, those iridescent wings
Carry all the earth it seems.
