A MIRROR IMAGE!
The image in the mirror reflects reality,
Its reflection is full of authenticity!
My heart which is placed on my left,
Gets transferred to the right as the mirror
reflects!
Perhaps there it gets more rightly placed!
And so does my image which ripens with
time,
As the transient self is gradually left behind!
My being slowly sinks and gets drowned, -
With bubbles rising to form my crown!
And as those bubbles burst it is seen, -
My existence was an insubstantial dream!

don't we see only what we want to in mirror reflection? good piece of contemplation...
a good piece of write and the transperant as said well.......left to write......and the ripples......the aura of physical sense always sounds good rather than innerconscience...............
dear raj....a very nice theme and its good to do some self analysis sometimes.though it might be a little scary for women to see the changes that age brings to them.! enjoyed reading this one. ritty
our life on earth is a dream...all we leave behind are memories...great read...thank you
I suppose, we should take a good look in the mirror from time to time, just to check what is going on. We seem to do this more often when we are young, as we grow older we seem to not do it as often as lifes journey is then more apparent. Bob
