Martin Kennedy "Mirror" (second)
reflecting back a knew light engaged
in sight seeing thy soul fly in mists
window so high.
new world the story in portrait shape
looking back looking in at the reflecting
king.
colours of this rainbow a wash with gold
shining eyes peering out sing and shout
for the untamed mirror clearer now
for it sees summers sun cleaning
house.
in sight seeing thy soul fly in mists
window so high.
new world the story in portrait shape
looking back looking in at the reflecting
king.
colours of this rainbow a wash with gold
shining eyes peering out sing and shout
for the untamed mirror clearer now
for it sees summers sun cleaning
house.

Mirror by Justine
You’re My Mirror
Telling lies, that I’m okay
No conscience
Exact, I think,
Always reflective
Of the outside
Only in segments
Portions,
In Stages 123
Unless in full length
The cracked mirrors
More revealing
More accurate
Maybe,
Like a rippled lake
Trying to show
More depth
Mirrored,
No warmth,
Cold and hard
You’re shallow, flat
A copycat
You stare at
Off white walls
Magnolia,
Chip wood
And doors
All sorts
Hallways and stairs
Sometimes you catch me
In passing
In reflection
I see you,
I smile and
You smile back
I cry and
You reply
Simultaneously,
With tears
I bleed and
You copy
I laugh, but its
Not funny
I’m only laughing
on the outside
But you don’t know that
Cos your
Only a mirror
You don’t have ears
But you hear everything,
You’re not nosey
Just very aware,
One-dimensional.
You take the stance
Of face value
Cold,
Smooth,
You have
No other option,
You don’t smell
Or record
You’re just a voyeur
Your taste is of
The moment
The seconds
The minute
No record
No memory
Only the present
No worries
But you have
Something special
Like a cat,
You can see
In the dark

Mirror By Martin Kennedy
reflecting back images of chance
enhancing light space and view
looking through windows blue glass
seeing two glancing new
flying flight dancing through reflection
within the sand crystal clue cosmic
glue climb on through to the next space
spying eyes shooting skys light
taking flight seeing a refective view
its breaking in opening thy door to
next worlds. a shore line of skipping rainbows
souls die and joy of living again so romancing
oh fires joyous toy sitting up on a wall
saying i'm the prettiest of them all
call an' see me reflected on thy waterfall
renewing yesterdays call.

Mirror Mirror on the wall
I woke one morning seeing a birdie,
having a chat with himself in a mirror
standing against the back yard wall.
Very funny, i can not explain the sight i saw
The feeling inside me shifted to thought....
Mirror mirror on the wall
Tell me, did we humans do the same,
A very very long time ago?
Our reflection shining back in the river flow.
Mirror mirror on the wall
Did we manage to see the image of Self?
I have to admit you are a brilliant tool
Somehow I know your follower will not be fooled.

Mirror By Erato (In French)
Miroir miroir
Dans tes yeux je lis
Le noir et la vie
Le reflet soudain
D’une joie sans fin
La beauté du soir
L’éphémère jour
Le temps passoire
Et l’espace qui court
Miroir miroir
Dans tes yeux je lis
Une âme qui jouit
De l’espoir infini
Une lumière jaillit
Et mon cœur sourit…
Dans tes yeux je lis
Le noir et la vie
Le reflet soudain
D’une joie sans fin
La beauté du soir
L’éphémère jour

Et l’espace qui court
Miroir miroir

Une âme qui jouit
De l’espoir infini
Une lumière jaillit

Mirror By Val Fletcher
The eyes are the mirror of our soul, the mirror shows us our face, our face shows our mood and our smile can change the day, and change the way we feel. Look in the mirror and see yourself, erase the frown thats lurking there, its all too easy to forget, smile and see the change and feel the change, you can only feel good and see the effect of a smile on other people when you smile at them, like a mirror they always smile back and that makes for a good day.

MIRROR
by Keith Mortimer Clancy
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Today,....I feel small
And locked out from my own love,
Every day I suffer but,
Strange as it seems I know,
My love lives more pure inside than ever,
I may be locked out of the garden so,
I shall spend my time ......
Inventing the smells,
Inventing the colours,
Inventing my own sounds of water running
I shall make and need my heart to reopen so much,
That such longing itself shall be my suffice
I shall spen this time thinking
Of those like me with closed hearts
I shall want always for them to join me,
In smashing down these gates which have barred all lovely,
People from the Gardens.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
What advice have you, for us all?

Seize the day by Sean
Seize the day
Stand
Stand
Stand and be counted
Make a stand
Show your hand
Strong tall small hand
Action
Then acceptance is the key
Open the lock
walk through the door
walk with the Gods
and bear fruit
and give freely to those
who inhabit your orbit
Seize the day
Today is the day
to change the world
Stand
Stand
Stand and be counted
Make a stand
Show your hand
Strong tall small hand
Action
Then acceptance is the key
Open the lock
walk through the door
walk with the Gods
and bear fruit
and give freely to those
who inhabit your orbit
Seize the day
Today is the day
to change the world

Seize the day - Anthony Greene
Carpe Diem
In the still of the night
and in your most tranquil of moments
let no-one stop you
hold close to you heart
your dreams and desires
for they are precious, and vital
so seize the day
and don't get trampled underfoot
by negativity and pessimistic attitudes
For when you want to fly
you should be able to
and whoever wants to clip your wings
will be a far distant memory
Seize the day, my friend, my lover
for tomorrow it will be too late.

Love Today by Malika
In the beginning…..
In the darkness, in the vacuum of time. Where nothing exists. There is a loneliness, an emptiness, a void. But there is a power beyond even the Void. There is the Nameless One. The One. The one which exists without time and space. It is an Energy. The Energy has a blinding Force radiating forth a great Power. And out pours Light and Sound. And out of this blinding Light and deafening Sound the Universe spins and creation is Born.
The Ocean of Bliss pours forth and in this Ocean of Bliss which reaches out to all the aeons of time and space and energy pours forth. It is true Bliss. It is the Ocean of Love. For love is the Truth that is the Only Truth which exists.
The Master of Love calls upon his Holy Angel. And commands the Angel to go forth and be the Master of this Ocean. The Angel is a humble Servant of the One.
The Angel is broken and does not want to leave the foot of the Nameless One. With great despair the Holy Angel goes to the Ocean of Bliss and makes his way to the edge of the Ocean. He looks down at the Ocean and has his own passions and ambitions. He takes his own will before him and with a great desire to have the Power of the Nameless One. The Angel is jealous of the The One. He wants to be the One. He turns his back upon the Powerful Force and trickles dirt into the Ocean of Bliss. “You are mine.” The Angel says under his breath. “You will be mine forever. I am your Master. I will drink from the Ocean of Bliss forever and with it’s Power I will bestow upon all that drink from this Ocean the Power. But it is not the real Power you will have. I will destroy all your Power by diluting your Power with falsities. I am the new creator. You are mine. All mine.”
The Master of Love had great Pity upon the Angel on hearing this. The Master of Love only knows Love and only has great Love for the Holy Angel who has betrayed Him. The Love said, “My dear Servant. You have your own desires other than to serve Me. You want the New World I have created. You want your own power. I have only Love. I am Love. I love you my Angel. Have my world. I give it to you to. It is my gift to you. Make of it what you will. But remember me. For all the wars you create, all the hatred for each other, all the murders and deaths, all the lustful prostitution and greed for power you create. Remember one thing my Angel; that all you are Master of my Ocean of Bliss. And Bliss it is. And Bliss it will always be. And to Bliss it will become again when the Ocean merges back to me. For I am the Source of this Bliss. I am the creator of this Bliss. For I am the One. I am the Love. I am Love. And all the dirt that you throw into my Ocean of Bliss shall evaporate in the Prayers of my drops in the Ocean. Each drop shall call for me. Each drop shall be cleansed as they call to me. For I am here. And I will always be here. You are finite my Angel. Your power has no permanents. You are the passing of time. I am Time. I am beyond Time. Each drop shall be washed and purified by the longing to be Bliss.
And so began the beginning of the struggle and the surrender. For Love is Pure. We are all made of Love. We come from Love and we go back to Love. We are Love. The Ocean of Bliss shall return to the Source of Love and be Loved.
Amen.

Seize the day by Tiennak
Amongst London's crowds she sat, how she stared
as people walked by without much of a care
eyes open wide looking first left then right
no-one would stop to hear her solitary plight
Her mind started racing, now what could she do?
To make someone listen, just for a few..
She plucked up all courage and halted him there
A loner, a stranger, with gorgeous long hair!
Yes? smiled he, care for tea? declared she
shocked silence, they glared, why not? I am free!
a moment of boldness, they conversed with ease
He felt so alive, and she, rather pleased
The afternoon ended without but a flaw
when she was compelled to hold open the door
Outside it was raining, when something occured
He took off his jacket protecting his girl
They walked to the station where he kissed her cheek
and sweetly implored we must meet next week
clasping hands with the next date assured
how love did blossom when reversed roles restored

Sieze the day by Val Fletcher
Carpe Diem is on the ring I wear,
it reminds me to seize the day,
only once are we here and the time will fly,
so let nothing get in your way,
leave yourself with no regrets enjoy each and everthing you do,
do good,be kind,be honest ,dont lie.
Breathe the air,see the sky,
find good in everything and everyone,
in all you do find satisfaction,do it well,
but most of all have fun.
See the world and people around you,
spread your wings and make the best of all you can,
enjoy your friends and family and
make the best of the day each and everyone.
