Passing time

I mark time watching the flower
as it breathes
dragonflies resting on water lilies
Patterns on leaves
Waiting and knowing
that I will not see
the bud bursting out
in celebration of a new minute
Dragonflies and water lilies
come and go, come and go
Our time will come and then we will go
Dragonflies die and so do we.
