Thanks, aurora. The dragonfly did most of the work.

I've been looking for dragonflies forever! I saw one a couple of years ago, but no sense. It will be written about if I find one, though! :)

Bill, this captures the movement of dragonflies superbly. Again, you've captured the essence of the moment.

Thanks Pete and Polona. Funny thing, I saw the dragonfly and started haikuing on the spot, but it flew away before I got it right. I was just muttering imprecations when it came back, and I realized that that was my haiku.

Bill,

Nicely done.
I just saw a dragonfly, too. Must be something in the air.
