a dragonfly’s wings

~

have you ever looked upon a dragonfly’s wings

and

wondered to yourself ~

why?

~

why

with all of the many colors in the world,

are their wings transparent

to the human eye?

~

can it be nature’s gift to protect –

camouflage that which we see

or

maybe what we see is not to be questioned ~

it is exactly

HOW

it should be?

~

~

while pondering how, what and why

a hypothesis came to mind ~

wings such as these

must serve another purpose

than

simply a way in which to fly ~

~

i believe their transparency is magical

and

not just for the sake of  blending in

but

to MAGNIFY

the ordinary

and

all of the beauty which is surrounding them!
