Love’s Reflection

21 02 2008

In love’s reflection
of affection
I am blinded by the light.
It’s my good side.
It’s my bad side.
No, it’s the way my face hits the light.
In an imperfect symmetry
of hope
of joy
of pain.
Do not shift your focus
or the whole feeling will change.

Wow. What Tom said. This short poem says a whole lot in few words. The last 2 lines especially; for me they convey the fickleness that runs through Man. Also, I love any reference to “light” for some reason. Many meanings.. Thanks for sharing this thought-provoking poem with us and wishing you luck on your new blog – whatever direction it leads..:)

This poem leaves me not waiting to move. It has a power after the last line that rings beyond itself and last for as long as you can stand to stay still.
