Poem Commentary

Reflections are memories that our eye perceives as echoes in time. They become etched into our souls and guide our spirits on the paths we have taken, both past and present paths we shall take and these reflections are etched into our memories so that we can relive them at any time from the realm of deja vu....words by Asha (all photos in this video taken by Angel's Photos, enjoy all my dear poet friends both my words and my photos, for it is for you that I strive to give you the best)

Reflections

Reflections 

Our spirit is our desire and drive to seek adventure
Reflections guide our spirit to natures wonders

If one passes by a waterfall
It is our spirit that makes us pause to it's beauty & awe

Our spirit echoes the beauties of nature in reflections
And binds them with ones soul
Which makes us who we are

For those that do not follow their spirit
Then it is they who are blinded by the reflections of life

Reflections are sometimes the deja vu that we feel
Because our eyes see the reflection of our souls

In the waters of life and store it as echoes of the past
yet it is our spirit that keeps these reflections as memories

Permanently etched in the human brain
Giving us that feeling of deja vu

Stop to enjoy the reflections that your spirit gives you pause too
For they are simple shadows guiding our way into the future
capturing each memory

And it is these memories we shall pass on to our children

Ha ha You've hit it square on the head. And to think there are so many clueless souls wandering around in circles, plaintively wondering "Why are we here?"

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
