Eons ago, by the village pond
I saw wonderful flitting things,
& recall delightful memories of
miracles with gossamer wings
I saw one of deep turquoise blue
hovering over the leaf of a lotus,
while another of orangey colour
rested on the violet convolvulus
creating rainbows in the sunlight
wherever they flew, continuing so
till daylight gave way to the night

after they've turned the village pond
into a filthy junk pit, devoid of water,
blooms, blue morning glory or frond
