Songs For A Damselfly

Rating: 5.0

Zachary Huang

I. Dew

It's a Friday morning
a damsel sits quietly, waiting
her wings are too new
her entire body covered with dew

II. Disguise

a damselfly
is a dragonfly in disguise
she starves herself for days
just to give him a surprise

III. A play of flies

a damsel flies away
but still stays May
a stone flies only short
a fish flies for sport
