Dragonflies

Unfortunately up in the Big City we don't get too many of nature's critters.  So I've missed any dragonfly visits to notify me that autumn is upon us (not that the breezes off Lake Michigan weren't enough).  More significantly than just a symbol for the season though, dragonflies also signify strength, happiness, and courage.  I thought this description was lovely, and am thus hopeful I may catch a glimpse of just one before fall's end.
