Paradigm Mirrored

reflections cast come back at one
a silver spoon inverts a face
a calm still lake casts one in grace
a clear glass shall cast reflection
but silvered glass causes introspection

to look beyond glassed-in mystery
to look behind the back of thee
to see within where true beauty lies
a clear glass still casts inspection
but silvered glass causes reflection

the most excellent mirror, if truth be told
are when my love's eyes are in my behold

Yes, the eyes are the portal to the soul, they say.

"the most excellent mirror, if truth be told
are when my love's eyes are in my behold"

Mirror mirror on the wall
who writes most cogent words of all
whose eyes hold mine in their enthrall
who wrotes great poems in verses small?

Sunshine writes these words so bright
they captivate me through the night
