Who Is That Guy?

Who is that stranger staring from the mirror? He has wrinkles carved by stories unfolded Eyes that hold the wisdom of experiences A face that bears marks of battles endured   Hair once voluminous black, now a thin silver crown Skin with furrows etched, yet his spirit seems unbound Hands that now trembled, once so strong and sure A lifetime seen, unreeling on the screen of his mind   He sees love, loss, fears and glorious happiness A journey etched through time, with pride, untold That guy may be old, but still a glint of light shines Looking ahead for things yet to do and places to tread

Writing Prompt Write a poem concerning you, or someone, and a mirror. Make it humerous or serious; make it structured or free verse, but keep it brief. Use the mirror as a metaphor in anyway you desire.
