Sonya, it is an awesome poem and a great tribute to Paul Hansford. When the soul gets reflicted into a touch, a sound, a fragrance, a painting, or a word it spellbounds us and transports us to the realm of bliss. Even the silence communicates more powerfullly in such state of mind than anything else.. CP

I too Sonya was spellbound by Paul's poem Reflection. It is truly beautiful and so skillfully crafted. Your poem really evokes the poem's magic and reflects how poets around the world can be in awe of Paul's poem Reflection. 10 Karin Anderson

Yes, the simple notion of a reflection so perfect in a sheet of water speaks to all of us in one way or another, and causes a 'reflection' in our own mind. I am happy that my own poem has struck such a chord with Sonya, and indeed with other readers.
