Dragonfly dragonfly
Stuck in my car
Bang on the window
It won't get you far
Or maybe it's working
I see you won't stay
I'll open that window
So you'll fly far away
Leave me some luck
And a pinch of good cheer
And I'll think of you often
Though you're no longer here
True Story
Sometimes we have a hard time letting go of things that are no longer needed. Even though we know it's for best, old habits die hard. Make sure when we do find the courage to open that window and let that dragonfly free we refill the void with positive things. We will also do well to remember the lesson learned from the things that no longer serve us. Blessed Be
