              But I see myself from my own mirror,
              Reflection tells me all I need to know:
              The result is plain, could not be clearer,
              I’m on my way out, but some way to go….
              Thanks Neville

                and I'm so proud
                at this reflection, I recognise
                as a Witness
                to the poetry and wisdom
                you've imparted: selflessly...
                a great shorty, my friend

                • Neville

                    Pets and their owners seem to merge
                    into one creature, likewise husbands and wives become like one being, lovers also, over time. Each reflects the other, but you have summed it all up in 15 words, and added an additional aspect of breakage. Very powerful piece. - Phil A.

                      I fear I might start sounding like a stuck record .. but I would be living a lie if I failed to mention here and now that I am well n truly honoured by your comment above .. Cheers MF27 🙂
