Dragonfly

I've ridden on a dragonfly,
Above the stony brook,
I've hovered high above the reeds,
And for the fish did look,

I've flown across the waters top,
And wheeled and dived and soared,
And oh, it seemed just moments passed,
Before the ride was o'er

Now I have done this in my dreams,
A place where I am king,
A place that really has no bounds,
Where I do everything.
