Dragonfly

Dragonfly  
Maroon.  
Sparklie.  
Cystels.  
Chuck-berry red.  
Set in silver.  
Did'nt fly away.  
I saw.  
I looked.  
Settled in my hand.  
A thing of beauty.  
Gift not for me.  
Perhaps another?  
No one.  
Came to mind.  
After a time.  
It adorned.  
My hat.    
Till one day.  
It Flew away.  
Landing.  
On another.  
A hat of such.  
iridescence.  
Pleased.  
It found another.  
I was sad.  
It had left me.  
Yet grateful.  
For the time.  
It spent with me.  
No doubt I'll
Find another.
