Dragonfly...

 

A Request ~ A Fulfillment ...
I presented a request to Andrew Weitzer, confident of its fulfillment. He is a Nature Photographer Extraordinaire. One can only marvel at his level of mastery. Andrew captures, the essence, the strength. the power, the beauty, the uniqueness, of his subjects, such that they become alive as we view them in their natural abodes.
These supernal photographs of Dragonflies gifted to me from one who was my 5th Grade Student, Class of 1963, Public School 106, Bronx, New York.







YES, with JOY received.
Love it is,

Dragonfly

Dragonfly upon your wings I yet fly
Taken to frog ponds, to vistas on high
Your mystery, abiding wonder, and grace
Withn the joy of heart found is your place
From time beyond my grasp, your presence known
The majesty of creation your embodiment shown
Many a wisdom tale to be heard
Echoes, Echoes, of the Creator's WORD.

DRAGONFLY...




DRAGONFLY...
dragonfly dragonfly
upon its wings I ride
with the wind’s whispers
with the touch of the sun
with the shimmer of the light
with the grace of BEING
with the call, the call of flight.
