Patrick Cornwall Poet Acrostic

Mirror Image Imagined

My face is not good but it is not bad
I love the man who looks back at me
Regardless of how I dress I am happy
Rich or poor I am what I am
Opinions are like a mirror
Reflecting my hopes and dreams

I am my reflection
Man in that mirror
Against the lighted background
God lifts my soul
Energizes me and helps me accept

I wait each moment
Making them count
Appalled by addiction
Gainfully I set each course
In touch with myself
Never without hope
End is nearly
Dead end


Trying a new form out. Hope you like

It's these roads of direction, in which we generally flow. <*> I like this form Patrick, label it - have a lovely Sunday <*> :)
