Dragonfly

This is the first time I wrote a poem in a foreign language, which is English for me. I guess, you just need to start with something, right? So, here it is:

***

Once, I saw
The dragonflies,
The lonely ancient
Dragon flies -
It's so peculiar in size,
It crawls
Before it learns to rise -
I saw the dragon
Mesmerized,
I saw a dragon?
Am I sane?
I saw it fly, I saw it wane...
I saw it real
Or was it dream?
My eyes are open wide
I lie
Amongst the field
Where dragonfly.
