down below the surface of a quiet pond,
a little colony of water bugs,
they noticed occasionally one of them seemed to lose interest in what was going on.
clinging to the stem of a water lilly, the water bug would gradually move out of site to be seen no more , they were greatly puzzled as to where it went.
"I have an idea", said the leader of the colony.
"the next one of us who climbs up the lilly stalk must promise to come back and tell us where he went and why"
They all solemnly promised.
One day, the very water bug that had suggested the plan found himself climbing up the lilly stalk.
Before he knew what was happening, he had broken through the surface of the water and fallen on the broad green lilly pad above.
He couldn't believe what he saw , his body had changed into four silver wings and a long tail. The warmth of the sun soon dried the moisture from the new body. He had become a dragonfly.
Then he remembered the promise, without thinking, he darted down. Suddenly he hit the surface of the water.
I can't return! he said in dismay.
Even if I could go back not one of the water bugs would know me in my new body. I guess I will just have to wait until they become dragonflies too.
Then they will understand what happened to me and where I went ..
