K S Iyer (M-187) In response to A Glass of Mirroe

A respnse to A Glass of Mirror!

I had a sleepless night

The morning after,

I saw the mirror

Shocked, bewildered;

Red eyes & Swollen face;

I flashed water 

Again and again but

Weirdness was there;

Had some coffee

And came again

Looked at mirror

No change it was same;

Sat down did breathing

Mind calmed and

Lord Was with me

Smile crawled on lips;

I looked at my face in

The mirror of my heart

Surprised to see me

SO CALM, PEACEFUL HAPPY & WITH SERENITY!!

M G Warrier (M-134)- A Glass of Mirror!

I had a sleepless night

The morning after,

I saw the mirror

Shocked, bewildered

I ran away…

’Cos, I didn’t see me,

In the mirror

The mirror doesn’t cheat,

I believed…

I could feel my face,

I touched my nose,

But then…Where am I?

If I am not in the mirror,

How can anyone see me?

How can I ask,

Someone who can’t see me,

To feel me by touch?

**  **  **

A sudden ‘shout’…

Brought me back

To my senses…

“Who has reversed the mirror?”*

***

*It was a fancy mirror. One side mirror and the other side opaque.
