Mirrored

When lone and solitaire within your chamber, With lamp unlit, as evening shades unroll. If you reveal the trail your thoughts are taking, I then may read the riddle of your soul.

For it is then, the tired mind unveiling, Drifts stark into the holy after-glow. Within the hour of quiet meditation. The tidal thoughts, like limpid waters, flow.

Georgia Douglas Johnson

Learn by heart: tap a gap

When lone and within your chamber,
With lamp unlit, as shades unroll.
