reflection

i am the female relection

of the divine creation

of perfection

like moonlit projections

of light in all the darkness

of the sky in all it's vastness

which i am part of, as well

i hold the magic that makes stars

sparkle in the night



i swim in every body of water

at some point in cyclical passings

measuring nonexistent time

i shimmer, i ripple

i become one with the ocean's tides



or light as a feather, like a fallen leaf

i possess the feeling of flying

i am night's watchful light

i am a bird on a wing in flight

riding the wind, iup and down, i glide

there's nothing else like it

or like me, i am unique -

as all are in their differences

while at the same time

i'm nothing special.
