Image for the poem Only Smoke and Mirrors...

Only Smoke and Mirrors...

reflecting on yesterday,
through a clouded haze  
smoke wafts like spectres  
 
water colors flow down  
from raindrops falling  
dripping from fingertips, bleeding 
                                 memories  
 
 
papier mache' angels  
with kaleidoscope eyes  
looking through picture frames  
mirrors of the mind, and carousel  
                                                 rides  
 
hear the melody of pianos  
and woodwinds greeting  
sunshine, through smoke and mirrors  
                            we gaze

Author's Note
I put this as a motivational poem, even though it reads quite sad, with the use of language I chose but it is really quite spiritual, with a essence of reflections of beauty...this image really spoke to me, the Ekphrasis really speaks through this image to me...Ekpharisis is a poetry style where the poet speaks for the picture that gives them inspiration I found a lot of cool pictures that I will be feature this Ekpharisis is No.1..
