Reflection in the Amalgam

As the microorganism floats in seemingly infinite space.
As the sunflower sways in the late summer breeze.
As the butterfly is jostled by the swaying plant.
As the movement catches the attention of a bird swooping down.
As the dozing cat opens a lazy eye to watch the spectacle unfold.
As the laughing child feels the fur covered tail slip through his tiny hand.
As the lurking mother moves to scold her disobedient child.
As the edge of a cliff gives way and cascades across an barren road.
As the mountain overlapping two tectonic plates slowly shifts.
As the clouds drift in the sky to block your view.
This is the world through the looking glass.

Just a small speck compared to this world,
~Chiko.
