Reflections from the world

Look into the water calm
peering over its edge
into the dark and quiet place
to see the reflection of
one's face

Many thoughts can be seen
among the waters ripples
that have been made
or is it the calm serene
that one can look and
see one's life history

Is there joy and happiness
that this brings or does
one see such sorrow and pain

Does one share a simple smile
or it is a tear or pain that
reflects up into the sunshine

Only one can see what
is shown in the mirror of
water you see, it's their
own reflection that they see
to show them what life
has been made for thee.
