Irfana Ali Bhat Poet Free verse

Reflection

Today I sat by the lake...
The waters reflecting
each and everything
including me................
For a moment I felt
my reflection was my soul...
Full of waves
unclear and disturbed....
Trying to find myself
in those disturbed waters
I looked and looked for me
Then with a hope I got up
Someday I will be back here
Someday the  waters would be still
and my reflection would be clear....
I hope!!!
I hope!!!

Connie Gildersleeve November 25, 2012 at 8:10 AM Water in motion, its reflections are still evident but are fractured into wiggly lines that distorts your image. But still water can be difficult to see what is reality and what is reflection. Irfana it's an expressive write. Thank you for sharing, Connie

Richard Lamoureux October 27, 2012 at 9:10 AM Water is one of the most amazing elements on earth, soft to the touch yet powerful beyond imagination. I am glad your soul is water and I am happy to have your words soak into my heart. Well done
