                  My Dragon Fly and Me 
 
                     
 If I could be a Dragon Fly
 and wing my way through the sky
 I would never be shy
 just me and my Dragon Fly!
 
 
                  
                  By moonlight we ride the wind chase the comets tail for fun
 by day we would hide from the sun
 our fragile wings would come undone
 
 
                  
                  On darkest nights we would use fireflies as our guide
 we would dip and we would glide
 through the heavens open wide
 and scatter diamonds in the night sky
 my Dragon Fly and me...
 
 
                  
                  And we would wing past our lovers silent in the night...
 to kiss their face in our flight
 much to their surprise and delight
 my Dragon Fly and me in sight...
 
 
                  
                  
                  Such a view do we share away up here in the air
 of breezes soft through our hair
 my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

    These are all stunning! 
 
I especially love the last haiku. Fabulously rich in images.

    here are a few more that decided they wanted out. 
 
Evening settles soft 
colors fade to monochrome 
outside my window
