Mirror

My mirror shows a vivid reflection

of a STRONG woman 

who delivered me to this beautiful life

Her strength is multi-dimensional

Deep as her thoughts of life

Firm as her hardworking hands

Explicit as her bold powerfull words

Unbreakable as her motherly loving heart

The more I seek in the mirror

the more it reveals her profound beauty

The more I sink deeper into the reflection

the more I realize...

I envy her strength with all my heart

My mirror shows a clear reflection

of a LOYAL man

who raised me up with integrity

His loyalty is a "prism"

Shining a light through friendship

Illuminating the dark edges of life's uncertainty

Glowing in the smoke of dispute

Guiding my feet towards the paths of wisdom

The more I look into the mirror

the more I find his value

The more I wonder about the reflection

I am grateful to be theirs

although my reflection seems 1000 km away
