Bella is a little Dragonfly, her little body was sunning herself in the first springtime sun. 

 Her beautiful colours of green and gold of her body illuminate  in the sunshine.  

         She was sitting on the dustbin and flipping her wings in the sun, as she would say,

         look at my flexibility and my beauty.  

         She saw me coming with a large bucket of laundry to be hung out, she rolled her big black eyes, 

        and thought, "I am afraid, do not touch me". 

        No such things on my behalf..  

        She sat still for a few seconds, deciding what to do, 

        but she took off, spreading her delectate see-through wings and flew into the sky, 

        mayby to a nearby Pond to be a free spirit.

             Thanks for the little creatures in our lives, who give us pleasure.
