You and I and the Dragonfly
Do you wonder why
neither you nor I
can see eye to eye
with a dragonfly?
Is a dragonfly shy?
Does a dragonfly cry?
Are lilies sky high
to a dragonfly?
As they flutter by
though you try and try
you will get no reply
from a dragonfly.
neither you nor I
can see eye to eye
with a dragonfly?
Is a dragonfly shy?
Does a dragonfly cry?
Are lilies sky high
to a dragonfly?
As they flutter by
though you try and try
you will get no reply
from a dragonfly.
