Reflections

                                                                        I see myself
                                                                        in my mind's eye
                                                                        thoughts unbidden
                                                                        welling from deep
                                                                        memories of old
                                                                        wishes of yore
                                                                        reflections of my life
                                                                        all pass before
                                                                        with lucid distraction
