Damselflies in cyan-shining green
deftly darting though the weeds,
land on cattails’ pollen hat,
lighting yellow dust into air.
Sunlight glints transparent wings
held steady, fold-up fashion
like thin-winged butterflies
whose bodies shine in blinding blue.
The damselfly’s deft, delicate line
lifts up on cellophane wings.
It darts through the air
to find its prey.
A mosquito caught
by crunching, tearing jaws.
