How Real Is That Which We See?

A Short Write...

An image or a shadow?

What do you see?

What do you see, when you stare in the 'mirror'?

the mirror of reflection.

~

So now the reflection can truly be seen

Do you see:

An image or a shadow?

~

Musing in wildlife.

I sat in dappled shade, as the leaves shaded me,

protected me

from the harshness of the Sun.

A part of me (out of curiosity) wants to see the Sun

yet I am unsure I should do so

The reason why, I guess is, that I do not

feel ready

to give myself to the world.

... Now that the Sun has set

the Moon rises

in her beauty

and 'gazes' on the waters,

slowly her light fills the pools

surface

and the night starts to come alive!

~

But in reality, or should I be more accurate,

is reality even known?
