Just Be You
When I look into your eyes,
your potential to improvise
and mold yourself to any guise
tells me that your talent lies
in the fine art of disguise.
You could give a master session
in the changes of expression
to obscure extreme depression,
thereby forestalling confession
of your doom and gloom obsession.
Why not just be who you are?
Reality can get you far.
When you feel you’re under par,
just show the truth and raise the bar,
and of your life, become the star.
MVB’s prompt today is improvise. Since it is the only one posted so far, I’m going to go ahead and dedicate my entire poem to this one word.
LOVE this one!

That’s my niece Lainie. I took the photo many years ago at an antique store where she was looking into a many-faceted piece of glass.
