For Patty -- on the night we chose a wedding date -- January 11, 2002
Thinking of dragonflies
So free, so unrestrained
Boldly claiming a midnight sky
Tasting the air you breathe
I gasp as I feel the flutter of your wings
And I die just a little
Each time I reach for you
And you fly just a half-second beyond my reach
Let me clip your wings
Just a little
Knowing how fragile you may be
And let me pull you in with a breath
I could never exhale
