A Dragonfly Tale Akhilesh Mehra

Three Insects One snail shell And An Age Old Prophecy Cocooned from the world is a strange flower. But see, I never expected to find it in my garden. As soon as you touch it, you can experience being a Lilliputian of 'Gulliver in Lilliput' by becoming an INSECT. Oh, yeah, you heard it...an insect. I became a dragonfly (horrible, eh?) That is when my fantastic adventure begins. I'm handed a tricky task; to help a girl/grasshopper reach her home safely. But do you think that I would be able to survive this dangerous adventure? Being swallowed by a pitcher plant, getting stuck in cobwebs and a battle with a LARGE dog? But that is the least of my troubles. The real question is, was I able to change back to a NORMAL sized HUMAN? Or did I stay like that forever?
