Reflections

I look at this photo
And I see so many reflections
Of all different types
Touching my emotions

I feel my love reflected back
From the girl growing so fast
In her eyes right from her heart
I know this love will last

I hear history reflected here
Through the cannon's last shot
Telling us to talk
That advice would help a lot

I see light reflected brightly
On the surface of the sea
Reminding us that life
Is a gift for you and me

This poem was written for the prompt "reflections" at Poets United.  The photo was taken in December at Brighton and has been waiting for a suitable poem to accompany.
