Reflection Poem by Vaibhav Pandey

Reflection

Rating: 5.0


I used to stare at strangers
strolling in serenity with
hatred heavy on my heart.
The reasons, repentant,
rattled my ratiocination.

Till the time transpired
the transition of thought.
In retrospection, I realised
that the rage residing in
my retina was nothing but
my reflection resonating,
reeking off their faces.

Another fine lyric; you display impressive wisdom in one so young, I urge you to keep writing and nurture your God given gift.

This poem reminds me this - 'By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; And third, by experience, which is the most bitter.” Hats off for this noble reflection. No wonder it got so many readers. Thank you for this good write.
