BLINDING REFLECTIONS

Louis Gibbs

 

We exist

As mere aspects

Of our entirety ...

Shards of a reflection

Too brilliant to gaze upon.

    Thanks LOUIS ~ True ~ each day is an aspect ~ BUT ~ the Whole is a Blinding Light ~ which increases day-by-day ! BRIAN

    • Louis Gibbs

      Thanks for your comment, Brian!

    • Goldfinch60

      Good write.

      • Louis Gibbs

        Thank you for that appraisal, Goldie.

      • Fay Slimm.

        The picture you pen of beings as human manifestations on this planet is one I relate to Louis - - we are a mere aspect indeed of our brilliant "entirety" - such an inspiring read. Saved to read over again.

        • Louis Gibbs

          Now I consider that a real honor, Fay ... both, considering it inspiring and saving it! Glad you could relate, though not surprised.Thank you for so generous a review!

          I got too big for my boots - I thought you meant me, too stunning to see, a fount of all wisdom, folk dazzled by my knowledge, my mere appearance, etc, etc. Pass me the humble pie! heehee.

          • Louis Gibbs

            I do mean you ... all of us. You are certainly one of the dazzling too! Cheers.

            I love you philoetry, Louis. And this one speaks to me since I have always regarded our souls to be like sparks that fly out from a brilliant center, eventually to return. You put it into much more elegant words.

            • Louis Gibbs

              I'd say your words are spot on, Fred. My belief echoed well, fellow Spark!

                Brilliant reflections of a brilliant mind. Well done Louis.

                • Louis Gibbs

                  I'm blushing, mb! So kind of you.

                • myself and me

                  The Shards not brilliant, this poem is.
                  Entirety vs Shards, the philosophy burst out from the intense contrast is so bright and blind the eye.

                  • Louis Gibbs

                    Perhaps we shards do not realize our true brilliance. After all, we are aspects of Creator, are we not? Thanks for your complimentary response, m&m!
