“Reflections” by Shirley Ballard (86 yrs.)

Posted on by lkthayer

 

reflections in windows

seeing myself

as an unknown face,

surrounded by strangers…

or are they all me?

Shirley Ballard

(Miss Calif. 1944)

    Excellent poem, Shirley. You’re probably just gazing at the many personas you carry with you in this life and the poetry one is great.
