Damsel fly

The Spring watch fly
Seen by an eye
The epitome of gentleness
Delicate it influences
Being there
I must confess
A blissful blush of blameless softness
A nymph of high regard
With such charisma and such charm
Its wonder wasnt hard
To realise
A genuine and delightful
Soul to see
A faerylike creative force
In its own field naturally
Skating on the surface
Of a millpond in the Spring
A spotless brush with magick
And each rainbow wing
Breathes a mere morality
And a wonderful embrace
A maiden flight to paradise
With the utmost grace

Watching a elegant fly
