Her mind is a conundrum
Where all is upside down
And all is colourful
Against the gray reality around

The sun instead of thunder
A smile towards a frown
It makes her look a fool
But often double reflection shows it right

Okay, Gale, you're back with a flare . . . Gotta love those double reflection's. They work like truth serum to expose what is needed to be exposed.

No, no, no, no, no! No ways does this make you look a fool, Galina! I know you call your strength, stubbornness, but I know it is strength!

You see the beauty in the world, and that is moving forward and living!

Lovely poem!

Thank you so much, Owl!

But, lol, I don't think that this piece is autobiographical )
I told you its story, but maybe you haven't read it yet.
It was a little competition, not even a competition, because there was no promised prize or award, but a challenge. The picture was given to inspire on writing a poem. And such association just had come to my head, it was an abstract image of some girl or maybe woman. Maybe one of my friends, or someone from a book or a movie.
But you're right, I could relate to such vision

I like your rendering of a conundrum, dear Galina. That kind of foolishness can be fascinating I would say.
