Upon Reflections Shattered

Upon Reflections Shattered

 

when the mirrors well and truly cracked

then clearly, on reflection ..

there can never be no looking back

    The mirror is such a dangerous implement, always looking at your worse side.

    • Neville



      Let's face it, on reflection, over the years, I have found my self writing about them often ............ N 🙂

    • Fay Slimm.

      Mirrors are truly attractive to poets world-over - you aptly show on reflection that cracks distort every look-back - I must say when mine do that I chuck em away........x

        I'm so glad I'm not the only one .. thank you for smiling down upon these words Fay ... N x

        If the mirror don't crack, will it be seven years good luck? I must know these things, even though I don't believe in 'luck'. It's 'sad' of me, I know. lol.

            Life and mirror
            Relationships like mirror
            Hope cracks don’t appear
            Or heart like mirror shall shatter
            Lovely lines dear Neville….

                  Mirrors - never look back - the rear side doesn't reflect. Nice one Neville.

                    These days I just have to look at a mirror and it starts to crack up. Great meaning in those lines.

                      Let's not get angry at the mirror and crack it "well and truly," just turn out the light.
