Comment from Jackarrie
this is a really beautiful poem, written with wisdom of how life is about living now with spirituality.
Stillness bring signs of serenity
Present one must be for ecstasy
Sounds of nature heard all through the night
A peaceful paradise day and night
Good luck in the contest. Mary

In a way, this is somewhat spiritual as you look at yourself and visualize the depth of how far you have come.
Very nice areas of alliteration.

Comment from Winslow
Dear Harmony,
A poem of acceptance of aging. Mirror, mirror on the wall who is the fairest of them all. It is I even though wrinkles and gray hair appear my soul is forever young.
life continues to transcend(s) singular verb required.
Warm regards,
Winslow

This was a well written poem. The poem reads well, and the message is clear. This poem stood out to me because I also want to grow older gracefully. Good flow of words in this poem. Nice job.

I like the opening line that repeats in each of your stanzas
good alliteration in serene sensitivity settles
and in calmly, carefully, crafted by God's grace
good consonance in reflections of life
more good alliteration and consonance follows
thoughtful insights in good poetic form

You have made excellent choice of words to convey the message of your poem. It flowed well and I particularly liked the promotion of the grow old gracefully theme. I am tired of the wax-doll like monsters we are subjected to in the media! Good luck in the contest-an enjoyable read. Faye

Very beautiful poem about having gained wisdom with age. Knowing that though we as humans have free will, we can not control events "letting go of outcomes offers freedom" and we are better off just trying each day to do our best, knowing everything is ultimately in God's hands. Very nice.

Having faith, whether religious or not is important. Cause all things are connected. There's a plan. Like how you start each line with "In the mirror in the depths of my soul" Very nicely written. Les

Comment from DALLAS01
You have used alliteration, effectively, in each stanza. I like the way the fist sentence in each stanza repeats itself. It tends to keep the reader focused on the souls involvement.
