Contemplation (polysemous)

Does a little peek into the mirror reveal a reflected stranger
That you need a closer look for familiarity till it turns clearer
Even then, does the virtual seem unfamiliar? Search within but Alas!
You seem lost as you search for yourself beyond the glass.


You may choose to either chew on it or just 'chuck' it.

Time to get a little local

For both peters and locals,

My attempt at creating a blog

Something I do when caught in the snares of boredom - poetry-writing (if you can call it that). They scarcely make sense and the only good thing about them is that they rhyme. Tell me what you think

Here's a sample:


Walking carelessly, my eyes fell on her on the corner of the street
A look refined, a benign air of pride; man, she looked so sweet!
Expressive visage reflected innocent heart, didn't mind admiration
Time ran swiftly, ceaselessly and I, unaware, stared in fascination.
Footsteps like rustling leaves, she passes by like a gentle breeze,
Pride of a lady, heart of an infant, she's got a child's caprice.
With pride, innocence and gait that could charm the birds off the trees
Felt my passionate heart covetously plead, "Will you be mine, please?"

Verse 2 (continuation):

Gentle, searching looks, snow-fur she had and a sharp claws for nail
Joyous walked to the "Pet Shop" window, pride showing in upright tail
A satisfied customer, I walked out, in the end, with a load flabby
In hand I held my pet, selfish, wild, yet, the cutest little tabby.
