Through the looking glass.

Through the looking glass.

The lightness of being,

highlighted,

looking through a bottle

half empty.

Comforting!

Knowing the bottle

was still...

half full.

When reading the title, I was thinking it was to be a fantasy type of poem. I was surprised. It was a pleasant type of surprise, though. If you look at the sun through any type of bottle, especially a colored glass bottle, it has a beautiful effect. Something that's both pleasing and comforting.

A great injection into the irony of volume. Catchy phrasing!

Interestingly and cleverly written piece. Short, witty and smart like so often. Elaborating on this frequently asked question, you have decided to go for the positive solution/aspect. The title reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.
Nice one.

Thank you so much Vanessa for your words

I really enjoy your unquie perspective that you convey
through your clever use of word play. the title of this captured
my eye..since I'm currently reading the adventurers of
Alice in wonderland {not the golden book series.}… anyhow,
your writing is not only delight to read but are witty lessons
for the reader's to absorb but also teases one's imagination
with your own style.
it's truly amazing how one's perception can change the outlook
of certain circumstances in their lives & those around them.

what a thought-provoking write this is...to wake up to,
before one starts their day. Thank you for sharing!

I figured you for an optimist. Personally, I don't look at it either way, it's what's in the glass that's important ( that and as long as it's not completely empty ). Yet another excellent write my friend!
