What the mirror tells
When the surface will not show the depths inside
As if the glass were wishing wells
With everything not known or hidden in collide

The being of me accolades
In differences that certainly are not a normal find
But I see deeper escapades
While others seem to think they know my mind

While taught and brought together
In the gift of surface calm
A soul of seas transcends the weather
When small degrees disarm the storm

Then all of how too temperate
Unlikely, for the mold was broken on release
A child’s eyes, yet woman in the temperament
While small the candle inside burns in peace

What’s most unlikely breathes
The push and pull of grand surprise
A searching on the inside seethes
With but the vision to surmise

The mere sounds of the words you compose together, sound like a symphony...

The addition of their meanings, balances genius with beauty...


Your poetry, you, are to be held in awe!

Muddy waters run deep....so do images in our
mirror....

this is surely a fine example of "This Diamond"  that graces our eyes with her
beautiful poetic expression of her innerself
and all of her that we admire..

Kathleen,

Richy just said to you what I've been unable to say so perfectly all this time.

This poem is so special; it honestly is awesome.

Hugs, Pat

ThisDiamond - I'm not sure why, but this is a little different from what I've read of yours. I like the way it reads...
