Reflection


Who is this guy

Whose image

From a Selfie

Is captured

For you to see?


In his mind's eye,

Who does he see?


Is he Narcissus?

No, he's just me.


-CPW


As I gazed at this Selfie, I was reminded of a wonderful poem by William Butler Yeats entitled “Girl’s Song”.


Girl’s Song


I went out alone

To sing a song or two,

My fancy on a man,

And you know who.


Another came in sight

That on a stick relied

To hold himself upright;

I sat and cried.


And that was all my song –

When everything is told,

Saw I an old man young

Or young man old?


CPW


P.S. Happy Birthday, Lee!
