ReflectionsA Poem by Val Dohren
Behold the pregnant, silvered moon
Full mirrored in the shimm`ring sea Then shining low at early dawn The sun, as golden filigree Reflecting in the dancing waves To crown each glorious day anew The sky a dazzling oriflamme Soft glist`ning in the morning dew And see above the drifting clouds As o`er the land their shadows creep Like ghostly spectres ling`ring `pon The hills and valleys, nestling deep Then hear the mighty oceans break Against the rocks, so cold and grey Resounding `cross the des`late shores To crash, untamed, then fade away For "as above then so below" The large reflected in the small So too the all-pervading power Lies deep in every living soul Reflected in each beating heart Each single atom, small yet vast As there within each grain of sand The boundless universe is cast So e`er the threads of thought unwind Each fantasy, inspired, to spin Reflections of the inner self Where all is still, so still, within © 2012 Val Dohren |
