Analysis of I REFLECT



Reflect on those masterful experiences
A dash of the landscape of life
Kaleidoscope of happening
With hoe and rake and tractor
Final test; infatuation, love
Jeff, Judy; gems, shine, grow, learn
Lecture in front of thousands
Veteran, teacher, real estate broker, lover
Elevated, respected.
Writer.
Theater aficionado, books, poetry
The gentle faces eye to eye
I do not dare look into the mirror
Let the jet zoom, flit by
It’s a glorious, rough, real
Laughing life, left in tears
Despite setbacks, grateful, thankful
Wisdom, wealth, cremated
Without me, I reflect again
Silent - quiet - gone - gone!
