Analysis of A PICTURE OF MY IMAGE



All alone in the dreadful forest
Sitting lonely where I couldn’t Rest.
The sky so blue and the winds where Calm.
I looked up and wonder all about these creatures.
Behold a captivating smile,

Speaking thousand words in silent
They clouded my mind!
Telling me About a client
These words were so deep, burning in me,
Showing me an image of Creation.
I saw it through my own imagination
And the image is me.

A shadow was left on my wall,
A clear picture of a beautiful future,
Inspiring me to carve a structure,
With tools of Hardwork and aim of earning the future,
It says, Look up onto the fathers of all creatures,
I understood the picture and it gave me words of inspiration.
