Damselfly days

Damselfly days are
Swift and sparkling; short as a 
New life barely lived 

Illustration by Andre Sollier, from Zen.Poems ed. Manu Bassano.
This is a photo of an illustration, see above. Not my own illustrative work. 

I didn't have a photo, so I took an illustration and decided to write about it from there. A haiku a day keeps the brain cells at play.
