Dragonfly | Tina Meeks

You found love in the twists
and turns
and entanglement
of the trees.

I found freedom
in the flutter of your sparkles.
Reflective blue, like hummingbirds
in the blink of an eye.

This feels good to say.
It all used to roll off the tongue
a lot easier when the city
moved faster than it does now.

Now, time feels at ease,
and that blue
looks so vibrant and true.

Where will you fly to, my new friend?
Will you search for more love
to whisper in your ear?

There was a moment you inched
closer to me, that I thought
we might touch.
Your blue, may be scented.
You might be ecstasy
sent from the presence of every other color
that I am capable of seeing.
