Reflection
Your warped song and dance
play to my soul
twisting and turning me
inside out
melting and moulding my
depths
creating, shaping, chiselling
away to new form
until no longer do I
recognise
the one whom it is looks back
through the mirror
a reflection of self
Anna-Marie Docherty lives in
Pembrokeshire, Wales, UK and is often inspired by nature and the world around
her. Having been writing poetry now for 4 - 5 years, her works have developed
in structure and form as well as using free verse in her writing as she walks
this endless art form and creativity in her thirst to further learn. Letting
the pen and the muse dictate topic and form both humour, religion, nature or
the serious subject might be touched upon therefore keeping the writing fresh
and easy to read by those who follow. Writing both as given name above and pen
name anaisnais through the net, examples of poems can be found both in Snippets,
an anthology of short verse by various international poets, compiled by Karen
O'Leary and Patricia Ann Farnsworth-Simpson; also Pink Panther magazine,
an anthology written by several poets and artists on feminist issues in our
environment and various poems on the internet for taster.
very thought provoking
