This is reflection
Long, dark eyelashes reaching out to the world
A dilated pupil showing anticipation
A gleaming sea of exuberant joy
Smooth, porcelain skin of an innocent child
Natural beauty
Nothing fraudulent or tainted
This is curiosity
About life and love
The rises and falls
But choosing to see only the beautiful little things
Keeping hope when the storm is growling
When the lightning is striking your toes
This is looking forward
To bigger, better things
I love the optimism and hope, the willingness to grab on to the good you can find, that you have captured with this image and your words. I like the bravery this line implies: "when the lightning is striking your toes." The "looking forward to bigger, better things" is really what keeps us going, isn't it?
