reflections–octpowrimo day 14

Posted on October 14, 2012 by Susan L Daniels

the beauty we know
simply
this dance
of light
and matter

their rainbow game
echoing
you to me
in diffuse
spectral reflection

spinning colors
you are not
to dazzle eyes inside
snapped angles
in all directions

unneeded sun
you give back
unknowing

and grateful
i bask in it

 

Double reflection: The sun is reflected in the water, which is reflected in the paddle.

I am a firm believer that politics are personal, that faith is expressed through action, and that life is something that must be loved and lived authentically--or why bother with any of it?

    The whole poem is wonderful but the ‘you are not’ really got to me (in a good way)
