The Dragonfly Lyrics

In the country of Wisconsin under the sky

Through the bushes and logs you'll have to look far and wide

You'll come across a pond an ecosystem that thrives

And somewhere round that pond you'll find a dragonfly

He's placed there among the reeds and lily pads

Glowing all colors of blue green and red

He waits there next to the water's edge

Not listening to others no he knows what's best

And in a flash he takes off above the reeds

Each of his wings moving independently

Across the land he flies with incredible speed

His eyes surveying the surroundings 360 degrees

Fly dragonfly till your heart's content

Don't let others stop you do what your soul is meant

It's your time dragonfly from now till the sun sets

There's no wave that can rock you no your sail is set

In the country of Wisconsin at the dead of night

When the owls have woken up under streaming beams of white

You'll come across a pond an ecosystem that's thrived

And somewhere round that pond you'll find a dragonfly

He's resting for the night under a cattail

For he has been in flight and hunting all day

The sound of the crickets ring out around the pond

The dragonfly listens to their earthly song

It's amazing to think of how far he has come

From when he emerged from the pond when he was young

From all those days as a nymph that he swum

To flying under golden rays colorful as the sun

You survived dragonfly every challenge you faced

You made it through them all even when you couldn't find your place

Take pride dragonfly know that your soul is safe

Through all the ups and falls there is no dream that you can't chase
