Here’s a quote that made me think …
Live as if you were to die tomorrow.
Learn as if you were to live forever M. Gandhi
The #vss365 #prompt for 27 Nov #learning
Lavender seeing
its #reflection,
but I imagine
if such a plant
had a pair of eyes
it would marvel
at its imperfections
& still find
in its heart
to forgive us
for our transgressions—
for plucking it away
so its grace lingers
as we hope we do
among fields of humans

leaning to the flicker of the flame
"You seem apprehensive. Are my eyes to blame?"
"Your eyes are mine!" the man exclaimed,
shocked how mirrors lacked restrain
turning back to his #reflection
to stare with empty eyes again

Dylan caught the #reflection of his face on one of Magpie’s consoles and mused that it was a good thing he wasn’t in a proper military.
He looked a mess.

Joe stands behind her and they both stare at her #reflection.
‘You know I still see the same girl I met 32 years ago.’
She smiles.
‘See there you are.’

how sad it must be
to move through life
seeing only mirrors
each unique face,
each wondrous soul,
reduced only to
source and need
instead of turning outward,
so the radiant world
might finally
see itself

She looked everywhere: the toaster, the kitchen tap, her phone, turned off.
“Where did you last see it?” Pat asked.
Renata thought. The powder room at the auto body repair shop!
Sure enough, there she was.
With sad smiles, they both said “sorry”.

“It’s magic,” she said. “When you look into it, you’ll see my #reflection.”
It’s comforting, seeing her still. But it does mean I look just like her.
Maybe this would’ve happened anyway.
Although now my son looks just like her too… #vss365

‘Stop messing, Pixie.’ Gabe hisses. ‘We need to chase out the imps & clear up the troll poo before the humans wake up!’
‘We could pretend it’s the reindeers.’
‘Don’t you dare, Pixie. Get shovelling!’

We hiked
To our place
Overlooking
The sea
After you passed
Cried out
Exhausted by life
And found
The sky
Saved room
For one more
#reflection
Of your smile
Contagious
To the end

‘Whoa. He left the coffin lid open. What should we do?’
‘Do you have a Sharpie?’
‘What are you gonna do with a felt tip marker?’
‘I’m gonna draw a penis on his forehead. It’s not like he’ll see his #reflection or anything.’

she wrote the ending—
cutting dusk onto the page,
then writing dusk again.
Shadows became words;
time spun in circles.
A single breath of light
traced the old wound—
leaving only
the faint #reflection of dusk
within dusk.

this is my #reflection
upon seeing sunsets
like the sun
however mighty
and glorious
a life is
it comes to an end
our hopes and pride
will find home in ashes
we shall turn into
still, why does strife rage
why do we bring sorrow
to fellow humans

Now a kingdom where folks queue politely to pay £9 for a lukewarm pint whilst staring at their telephones, lost in reflection of lives they ain’t livin’.
Lord, even the ghosts in the Tower got Wi-Fi now. #reflection #vss365
