[Narcissus–painted by Carvaggio]
“Narcissus”
As I gazed in a pond by a tree,
I was met by a copy of me
Who could mimic my talk
And the way that I walk.
He was fine as a fellow can be.

Very clever – it fit with the vanity of the character and the setting. It was fun 🙂

Thank you! I keep revising this one because I think it has potential to be light without being nonsensical. As always, I appreciate your insightful feedback:)
