Translucency

And so you have landed on the branch of the wild raspberry bush. You there and me here gazing upon your streamline body. So many people are mesmerized by your unique beauty but for me I just stand staring at you, my dragonfly. I don’t know if it’s my blurred vision or just when your wings are facing the sun they seem to disappear. In your stillness and the way you are perched, it appears as if you not separate but part of the branch.

Today hunger calls me but my little dragonfly, I am drawn to you. Every time I see you from a different angle and spy these translucent wings again, I smile. Before my meditation I asked to be led onto a path of good health… not just to be led but become part of this path with strength to defeat my transparent enemies of sleep and loneliness, then fly with my radiant wings into the sun awaiting your smile.
