A reminder as the busy term starts …

     Reflection
A representation of what exists on one plane in reality.
A mirror that is sometimes perfect – often unclear.
A stillness – a tranquillity – a gentleness.
a peace
Life captured – portrayed- presented
for all who look to see –
So easy to go unnoticed if rushing by-
Yet …beautiful;
If a pause allows appreciation.
My reflection – what do I see?
A tired face but a glad heart;
A weary body, but a buoyant spirit.
For the beauty of life; days;
Wonders of opportunity; treasures;
Small seeds; sprouting forth; birthing life;
Potential …
Hope resounding hope.
Lives interwoven; threads overriding;
Interlocking; meshing;
Forming a tapestry of personalities-
Each significant; some unknown; few revealed.
Tranquillity;
Refreshing clarity;
Purpose
Passion
Contained in life
Represented
Captured so perfectly
In my reflection.

I’ve been fascinated by the “true mirror” explanation, that when two front faced mirrors meet at 90 degrees they present a “seamless three dimensional non- reversed image.” This image is supposedly our authentic image and is apparently a window to the soul moment that takes us part the superficial and momentary to the deep and eternal part of our beings. Fascinating … slow down and look for you …

I'm a lover of free verse poetry and cups of tea. The quickest way to energise me is to give me a moment under open sky, preferably in a garden. I love beautiful trees and Purple Crested Lourie birds and making school come alive for my students.
