Reflections In My Glasses

Reflections in my glasses, of all places I can see

Interacting with the past, and the future yet to be

So many changes happening, as the world turns

Causing eyebrows to go up, with many concerns

I wander in my memories, of a time I use to know

I let it take me there, as I relax and watch the show

It's so very different, every time I go there

Whatever is played out, I just stop and stare

No, my memories aren't bad, I remember it quite well

With an active imagination, it's a place I like to dwell

I love the present, please don't get me wrong

No matter where I am, I listen to each song

Reflections in my glasses, is where I like to be

It takes me many places, and helps my mind to see

Clouds outside my window, slowly pass on by

As I watch a seagull flying, up in the blue sky

Everyone's perspective, is different for everyone

What we see, what we do, when the day is done

The meaning of what matters most, in the time that passes

Is what I see and what I know, from the reflections in my glasses

This poem has been going around in my head for a few days now.

I thought it was time to write it down and post it. Like a reflection,

it can take your mind anywhere. The past, somewhere you want to

be, or something you have read and imagined yourself being. The

reflections of your life, makes you who you are. It's fulfilling to be

the best you that you can be.
