Challenge
There have been several mirror challenges but in this case we take and use the word "reflection" somewhere in your write. Poetry or Prose. It cannot be used as a title. Use it as a reflection of life, what you feel or see, long ago memories, or all the "what if's" ... Take "reflection" and run with it!
Make sure I am tagged only in the comment box and not the piece itself so I can get to you to read it in a timely manner as such @Danceinsilence

On awaking...
our reflections
the Poet has
first and foremost
words
before
coffee or tea and toast
(and sugar and cream of course)
that said Poet sips
and stirs
a writing implement
and notes
with lips-smacking
how this breakfast
tastes so much
like a dream
does
and
passes us
the sacred spoon
and cup
with fingerprints
pressed ghostly
to the brim
where only
condensation
had been
and when
looking deep
within
we are
there
arrested
by our scent
on the trail
of a poem
that eloped
and
are ever
enchanted
by its steam
left for us to
sink or swim
our literary
teeth
in
and feast our
thinking
on the
AM of
yesterday
evening
