I like the way you compare life with something edible and delicious. The poem is the kind that makes one think deeply about life from various angles. well done

Visionary, Very delightful bite of a poem. Seems you have aged well (but are NOT old yet) and the comparison to your mother in the mirror a good image. Graceful as you grow, it seems a good way to take on the years. Change

A great poem tht most forties and above can relate to. I think as beauty withers, age and contentment replace it if you are very lucky. T2

A very delightful way of expressing the journey of life and growing of age. I love your play on words and using food to express the pleasurable moments of life. A nice read.

I love the way you integrated food with the growth process.
You captured so many aspects of life within this terrific free verse.
Lively, fun, descriptive, and enjoyable.

A delightful piece of poetry, Visionary. I can very much relate to it... Finding joy in seemingly little things. For me it is the falling if snow and the magical world after it has fallen.

A lovely read to start my day!

Wow! Wow! Wow! what beautiful writing of the highest order. You deserve a six star, but I've run out of them. What a delightful way to look at yourself in the mirror philosofying about the passing of life leaving its tracks on our lives.
Well done.
cool bananas and warm regards

A formidable contest entry! It will take some doing to match the clarity and humor this poem demonstrates. I was particularly impressed with the clever internal rhymes. Nicely done...good luck in the contest!

Yes, growing old is sweet in so many ways. I can relate to this poem because I now appreciate things I once was oblivious to! Very good
