I am always overwhelmed by the support I receive here...thank you for your kind words. And yes J.R.V.A. I guess I was in a bit of a lull there but that never lasts long! Too much inside to get out!

So, without further ado....
~Reflection~
I looked at a reflection
in a mirror and it was me.
Yet that is not the girl I am,
my true self should be free.
For life is just a journey
filled with laughter and with tears;
good friends who stand beside you
through the ever-changing years.
I looked at the reflection,
caught a memory of a smile
it was a small reminder that
you've made it all worthwhile.
