Dragonfly Poem

            Lightness of day, fullness of hour
            Time opens portal of tulip flower.

            The girl stirs, slips out at last
            One hour to enter the past.

            A mother finds her daughter sneaks
            Along logs and watery creaks.

            Away from home, into the trees
            Across swamp and forest leaves.

            Flowers bloom, buds burst
            Animals drink to quell their thirst.

            Demeter mourns, Persephone weeps
            The sun rises and the moon sleeps.
