A Prehistoric Dragon Fly/ Encased in amber, on display/ Caught my eye as I passed it by/

                                    in the museum yesterday.


Encased in amber, as if time/ itself was stopped and held at bay./ You will never know decay

                                    Or another summer's day.



                                    You in amber, me in time

                                    Both are trapped and on display.

                                    You in resin are enshrined,

                                    while I am seen encased in        
          rhyme.
