Avoid Falling Up Poem by Chuck Audette

Avoid Falling Up

Rating: 5.0


I reflected on a puddle
as I walked slowly by
that it looked, to me
to be as deep as the sky

There's many a truism in your humour, chuck :) And, as Justine says, a reflective piece for sure! jack

This is one of those reflective little poems that have to be read more than once. Deep in all it's simplicity....Justine

It's just a conundrum wrapped in an enigma ensconced within a paradox and other such bollocks. Actually I loved it, it reminds me of myself. Ez

Mirror, mirror, in the pool. Do not take me for a fool for I know there are not two of everything for me and you when sun appears 'n' makes you dry you have no depth and just one sky looms high above until the rain creates a pool of you again.

I've always had an attraction to reflections. So mysterious.
