1. holy smoke! I wrote two very similar to yours. I swear I didn’t copy cat.

   • Dragonflies inspire the same thoughts all over the world!!

   • Me neither… we are all connected…

   • I think it’s stupendous the way you two connected through your haiku!

     Dragonfly

2. Resting dragonfly… lovely image.

   • I see at autumn they are probably quite tired

3. Waiting for the dew to dry…lovely!

   • Sometimes searching for paintings helps me capture a poem.. I guess it’s similar as the haiku poet going out to the pond finding an image to describe

4. How beautiful. In one of the regional American Indian traditions here, dragonfly is a symbol of illusion…just like the dew gives the illusion of diamonds.

   • a wonderful thought,,, that is almost like a new haiku..

     illusions –
     like dewdrops captured
     on wings of dragonfly

5. Such a beautiful image, Bjorn!
