“Mirrored Stone” by Jeff Flesch

You
remind me of the sun
and the way a candle flame dances
in a mirrored stone
 
reflecting back
elegance, and beauty
the tenants of the known
and unknown
 
dancing
with each other through misery
and hope
both
 
a place
to lay our head
when confused, and needing
to let go
