Reflections . . . A thought starts out as an idea, a drop that falls into the vast ocean of your mind. It creates a ripple that grows. Eventually the inspiration meets another ripple, and together they expand, adding to each other. Soon the whole surface is covered with thoughts. The sun burns on the surface and an image grows into being, a million jewels of thought. A reflection - a poem. Reflections is a sequel to the first collection of poetry, Ripples.
