Amidst the dancing rays of light,
A spectrum cast in hues so bright,
A mirror’s play, a surface’s plight,
The laws of physics brought to sight.
A photon’s journey, long and lean,
Reveals a world beyond our screen,
The angles change, the colors preen,
A canvas painted, ever-gleaming.
Specular or diffuse it shows,
The world around it, ever flows,
From sky to sea, from moon to rose,
Reflective light, the day bestows.
To comprehend this glorious sight,
The cosmos speaks with wondrous might,
A beacon on the darkest night,
Reflection of light, our guiding light.
