Medium Poems

Dancing Dragonflies

In the morning light they rise
Fluttering wings, they take to the skies
Dragonflies, of colors bright
Gliding gracefully, they are a delight

Their dance is one of pure grace
Swaying and circling in open space
Their movements so delicate and free
Like a waltz above the trees

In the warmth of the summer sun
They play and frolic, having fun
And when the day is done
They rest, ready for another one

Dragonflies, flying jewels
Bringers of wonder, these winged fools
Dancing above the world so high
A wonder to behold, a sight to spy.

The Dragonfly’s Path

The dragonfly flits and flies
Above the water’s tranquil guise
Its wings a blur of color bright
Against the sky, its path takes flight

As the breeze picks up, it turns and twirls
Its aerial dance, like ribbons unfurled
Over the water it dips and dives
A dance of life, it soars and thrives

The dragonfly takes flight anew
Its path uncharted, but true
Guided by an instinct deep
It follows a course it knows to keep

From pond to pond, it travels far
Its beating wings, like a shooting star
And though its journey is not complete
The dragonfly’s path is always sweet.

In quiet moments, if you listen close
You might hear the dragonfly’s gentle croak
A sound that speaks of beauty and grace
And of a journey, guided by nature’s pace.

Long Poems

Wings of Fire

Wings of fire, oh dragonfly,
Flitting through the summer sky.
Golden wings and eyes of blue,
A creature like no other slew.

You hover near the water’s edge,
A moment captured, like a pledge.
Nature’s beauty on display,
As you dance your life away.

Soaring high above the trees,
Light reflecting, caught with ease.
Fluttering wings, like a flame,
A sight that none can ever tame.

A symbol of strength and power,
Wild and free, hour by hour.
A creature to behold and love,
A symbol of elegance from above.

Oh dragonfly, dear friend of mine,
May your wings never cease to shine.
May you take flight, forevermore,
A symbol of freedom to adore.

Dance of the Dragonflies

In the stillness of a summer’s day
Near a pond or small inlet
A dance begins to take shape
As if by magic, a ballet.

The dragonflies start to emerge
In all colours of the rainbow
Wings beating in a rhythmic surge
As they take to the air to flow.

Their wings, like delicate lace,
Flutter and shimmer in the sun
As they dart about in this place
Their dance not yet begun.

They perch on blades of grass,
Their tails curling beneath them
Their slender bodies glowing like brass
As they wait for the moment to stem.

Then, as if being conducted
By a maestro, they take off
Swirling in a frenzy, guided
By some unseen force aloft.

They fly in formation, one by one
A blur of color, a symphony of light
Their dance, a work of art, begun
As they move in unison, taking flight.

Up and down, left and right
They weave a pattern in the sky
A moment of pure delight
As they swirl, twirl and fly.

Their dance, so fluid and free
Is an ode to the joy of life
As they flit and hover with glee
In this beautiful world, rife.

For those who witness this sight
There’s a sense of wondrous awe
As the dragonflies take flight
In their dance, unbridled and raw.

So take a moment to stand
And watch this wondrous display
Of dragonflies, so grand
In their dance, on this summer’s day.
