Forgotten Things


We went through woods to find Our pleasantries of mind, We lovers of forgotten things. There, nestled in the wild Sat picket fence and fig, And on a dancing twig A boy spied a dragonfly. Others hovered nearby, But this one did not fly When gently he stroked its wings. Oh the joy that nature brings, To touch a dragonfly In a place long untouched by child.
