DRAGONFLY SUN  (8-13-03, 3:15pm, Galveston Island, Texas)

 
today
is the day
of the
dragonfly sun
for on  
this day
the first
dragonflys  
have come
first day
of north winds
first cool day
with sun
first day
of these signs
of changes
to come
where two  
seasons
cross paths
blending  
into one
as sweet wind
in passing
gently touches
my skin
quietly kisses
my mind
alerting
my senses
my blood
slows down
stilling me
to listen
a little more
closely
to its steady  
ever present  
telling voice
whispering softly
hidden truths
nearly forgotten
everywhere
unseen by most
here around
us all
which now
stand out
so vividly clear
here under  
this sweet
inwardly reflective
outwardly reconnected
gaically intimate
mystic spell
of cool
north wind
warm sun
upon my skin
touching my
being
kissing my mind
uplifting
my newly  
reawakened spirit
without and within
as this brilliant
new day
seems to  
take me like  
some illuminating
psychotropic drug
here on this
first day
of signs
of these changes
now opening
upon us
here on
this day  
where  
the first
dragonflys
have finally
returned  
here on  
this bright
cool
golden day
of the
dragonfly sun
now
come
