Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Imagism

My Mirror Spoke To Me

Mirror, mirror what I see 
A face is staring 
It is my reflection
She decides to speak
The voice is not mine

I stood and listened
She smiled then she spoke
In the sun, I'm your shadow
We walk together
I am always with you

Every day I see
My reflection stare
We begin our day
With a smiley face
To begin our day
