The moon beams reflect on the deep puddles left behind by the rain in the same way that my mind reflects on the experiences I have had. Some reflections are darkened and blurred by the clouds and others are crystal clear like the water of a lagoon. I have learnt that both can be as equally as beautiful, as we can learn from both good and bad experiences and we can grow and flourish from them; in the same way that moonflowers bloom at dusk and daisies unfold their petals at sunrise.

These honest reflections highlight the need to allow life 's happenings to shape our inner responses - I love the comparison you make to the unfolding of petals SL - welcome to My Poetic Side. Look forward to reading more of your verses.
Thank you fay. I have learnt so much in life from my bad experiences and even though they where bad i would not change them because it has made me who i am today.
