Funny, we see life according to how we feel. And with judgement, a mirror is held up to see ourselfs with one sight. A reflection of ones self is our master portrait standing before us. Giving judgement and critisim we see only one face.
Illusions become many different colors put forth in our own perceptions. In our own reality we loose ourselfs to our own reflections of truth or false ideas.  We seek only to satisfy those lonely moments of dispair, frustations and our hearts desires.  We see inside ourselfs as perfect without disception and claim perfection.  And at that mmoment by our souls inner face of perception we see the truth. A mirror of reality.  The lines on my face express my journeys. I have traveled down a road where I have been carried and where I have walked alone.  I have greived and I have laughed.  As I so choose the paths of my life now, I stare at a reflection that expresses wisdom and gratitude for my lessons and memories.  The expectations I have given myself no longer apply but have moved into a different realm of perception.  I smile at the reflection I see and give myself a moment to appreciate the growth my inner being has shown.  As I stare at the reflections in the mirror, I see many colors that I have painted in my self portrait.  
Today, I see the rainbow.  Today, I see a new world in me.....

I can always be distracted by love, but eventually I get horney for my creativity.

Thank you very much for your comments. I have enjoyed reading many of the poems in this forum and realize I have a way to go to match up.  I am very happy to be here and learn from all of you.
