Thru the veil...
When I look into the water what do I see
Is that a reflection or is that the real me
Sometimes my reflection when seen very near
Upon closer inspection new details appear
Reflections struggle when formed in the mud
Illusions clouded by muck and by crud
There are times when my reflection is too dark to see
Are my thoughts and actions as they should be
There are times my reflection shines through dawn's early light
It is then that my thoughts reveal what is right
Sometimes my reflection is not very clear
The calm is disturbed by ripples too near
In the worst of times my reflection shows my aim isn’t right
I'll continue to hunger till I better my sight
In the best of times my reflection shows I hit the mark
My belly is full, I’m happy as a Lark
At other times my reflection can change in a flash
When I make waves with my splish and my splash
Thru the veil of lifes mirror I hope that I see
That God’s true love is reflected in me
