Dragonflies

Ever wonder why I call myself Dragonfly Dreamer?

There is no doubt I love dragonflies and butterflies....my house is full of them! Not that I am really a ‘collector' of anything, but I am drawn to them. If there is a dragonfly on something, I will notice it! And people tend to give me things with dragonflies on them, my daughter in particular. Dragonflies are my totem animal and messengers. I see them everywhere, even in the most obscure locations.

Yesterday I saw one over the Indian ocean of all places! It was HOT, very hot in fact, so my family decided to go to the beach. There I was swimming around in the Ocean, when I saw a dragonfly flying from the open sea to shore, straight over the top of my head.

Then when I was leaving, as I walked in from the surf, there was a little dragonfly on the rocks. The little dragonfly just sat on the cool, damp, seaweed covered rock, and didn't fly off when I got near. It was quite small and had a lovely pale blue body, definitely not the same one that I saw earlier.

I don't know what it means, but I just had to write about this visitor.

Perhaps it signifies the time to come in from the cold and find a soft place to land.
