#poem, «Sometimes»

Sometimes I look in the mirror and the face that looks back at me is not mine…

It’s not the face I expected…

Life’s the same…

Things are not what we believe they are,

that’s the lesson I received from life…

A lesson, to be useful, must take us towards the knowledge of change,

for all things change…

The body I fell asleep in last night is not the same body I woke up in this morning, the cells have changed names, address and motivation and now I am new again as is the day, as is the morning as is the light that shines upon my garden from the sun…

All things have changed as each morning comes…
