The Mirror was enjoyable to read and interesting.
You followed the 5-7-5 writing prompt.
Very nicely done; its creativity. I enjoyed the post and the message. Great little poem in depth for such a short poem. Congratulation!

He and I and the guy in the mirror make three. If you have two looking into a mirror then you have four. Okay that's enough of my nonsense. I really enjoyed reading this ultra short poetic format... John

He blinks when I blink,
And stares deeply into mine, (mine what?)
he and I are..... me
I really like your idea here; however, 'and stares deeply into mine' leaves me hanging. Maybe 'stares deeply into me', but mine just doesn't work here, for me, at least. Otherwise, it's a great poem.

Haiku poetry by their very nature has to be very powerful. The reviewer has only 17 syllables on which to form an opinion or image. And off course a lot is implied, as syllables are at a premium. I consider the title and the charateristic of the mirror " his left, my right, poking fun," my suggestion of the image in the mirror. Good luck!

Much is said in this 5-7-5 syllables. Romantic and flimsy at the same time, it seems like the beginning of a great romance. Well done. Best wishes in the contest.

Very simple, but then so is a mirror. I like how you captured it in this poem. As a kid, didn't we all try to see if we could do something our mirror image wouldn't? You hit the 5-7-5 format right on. Good job.

great 5 - 7 - 5 entry. Really visual writing.
line three should be
he and I are ... me
(only 3 ... between)
Best of luck in the contest! Lea

well written 5 7 5 poem. I liked it
I was just wondering about the title. may be its better to name it " reflection" ? Mirroe is not really stares at you, your reflection does.

I enjoyed reading your poem, but I think you could have used a better word than mine in your second sentence. Good luck in the contest.

Very clever 5-7-5 with excellent internal rhymes like "blinks, blink and he, me" Love the last line. Great stuff! Good luck with the contest! Les
