dragonfly stalks, skims
& hovers over water–
delicate hunter
***
if light shaped music
the sun would chime reflections
dancing on water

Susan Daniels Poetry 
Perfect
Thank you–if light make music, that water would have been singing, truly 🙂
perfect picture. as always.
You are too kind, SFAM.
That second haiku is delightful. I can imagine the sound.
Thank you so much, Sandy! Beautiful walk & time spent sitting by the creek with a notebook this afternoon!
I love dragonflies… light and sound as interchangeable and as one. Hmmmm.
Thanks, Nelle. Guess I always have to bend properties, don’t I?
Nice! Really nice. Physics (specific gravity – skimming on water surface) Biology (food chain and suggestions of predation), light, color, sound, movement all combine to produce multilayered meanings and beautiful poetry!
Thank you, Noel. From now on, that notebook goes with me.
“delicate hunter” is so good for dragonflies – I think they’re beautiful – and yet they creep me out a little bit.

Yes–beautifully deadly.
