Attracted by her flighty style
And beautiful patterns of light
He grabs her from behind
Rough and tumble his ancient right
Showing his true colours
aggressive territorial tendency
Engaged in courtship rituals
asserting his neon supremacy
A firm grip clasping her neck
Positioning the wheel formation
Locked together with fertile promise
Full circle of life’s wonderful creation
Initiating his full intentions
Securing mid-flight tandem linking
Copulating merrily merrily
Down the stream without ever sinking
Closed circle of joined bodies
In the throes of intimate passion
A pair of mating dragonflies
Open to euphoric navigation
Landing pad is now my foot
An interesting perch to consummate
Viewing of their coupling
Tickled pink can stimulate
Supporting the last-in position
on their flight path homeward bound
Witness to a sacred union I am
Gratefully smiling without a sound
