Musings on the adventures of a dragonfly resting on a gravestone

Dragonfly on mammoth
stone
Tell me, Is this now
 your home?
Or are you off on
 speckled wings
to see so many wonderous
 things?

A little rest -
 a perilous trip
A bit of water
 now to sip
Before you're off
 in skies so grand
that dwarf a bug
 as well as man.

So tell me now
 my little friend
Is this a beginning
 or now an end?
