Sometimes, I’m as peaceful As the lily's white scented reflection Sometimes, I’m as heavy As a jagged rock thrown harshly Into the dreaming pool Other times, I feel as wishy-washy As the ripples~circling out In all directions, Indistinctly disappearing Some nights, I’m as serene As the mirrored projector of marbled light Some times at dusk, I’m as mysterious As the appearing mist, hovering Above the sleeping water blooms There are times~I imagine with fascination The person looking back at me Lives somewhere deep within the slick aqua moon Most of the time, I realize I know nothing of myself. But the slow resurfacing Of the memories that have drowned Then bubble up, in a quiet fizz |

I am this and I am that but, am I ever that and not this? I am all and I am none but, am I ever none and not all? I am me and I am me but, am I ever me and me too??  we are indeed all. . . and none. . . and yet, more. . . well done Regina. . . ----------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

Yes, you are a multi-faceted diamond, a rainbow of colors, and a poet of complexity. I enjoyed this one, and your new photo too. |
