This poem was birthed just a few minutes after I built the post for yesterday's offering. It was not completed then and needed to cook gently overnight, a few lines were added while I was in bed trying to sleep and the remainder emerged a few hours after I woke into the day.
It is a folk-song / Love-song which has quite a few roots in my past history of reading and listening to music.
Looking-Glass Eyes - 04 Dec 13
We sat together
Drank some wine
You smiled
And I looked into
Your looking-glass eyes
I saw myself
And saw you watching me
As we sat and dreamed
Of our life together
Reflected in your looking-glass eyes
You showed me our new world
Vast horizons open up
And I can see where we are going
Where our Love lies …
In your looking-glass eyes
Seeing myself reflected in those Looking-Glass Eyes and liking what I see.
Anyone not aware of the meaning ... Looking-glass is an archaic phrase for mirror.
