Mirrors are almost a magical thing. Whimsical question maybe, but does it reflect your image or does your image make it reflect back? - Magic, yes.

Are mirrors reminders that a Creator is staring back at its creation? Nobody and nobody can completely describe what your face is. The mirror says it all in no time. Unless one puts a mask on, a mirror never lies.

It is a mystical thing - that mirrors, even though how small can show your full face. Maybe it s also a divine creation.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I don't think Anything pleases God more than when our love for Him and His immutable ways is on public display, when we honour Him He will honour us, not that He won't honour us anyway, I loved your poem of devotion Vance, you'll have to share with us your testimony at some later date, well done, articulate poem written in eloquent language with aabb rhyming and rhythm, well done, blessings, Roy.

This poem made me so happy, as I was feeling a bit low in spirit!Love does bring happiness and it lifts your spirit too!
My soul speaks to me and I listen. It says that I will never be alone for God will always be close to all of his children! Sadness sometimes visit us during very dark hours...but thank GOD, because JOY comes in the morning! I like this poem so...much because it spreads joy and love beyond the grayness!

You did well to remind us we should accept and love the
person in the mirror made in His image.I really think
you words say it all,"Look again in your mirror and see my face." He made us in His spiritual image. Well done.

Like a rhythmic dance the beat goes on as ending sentences rhyme in time & alliteration: sails your soul to seas; while the whole poem states the points of truth, I especially like; (And know I planned to meet in this place) the providence & foreknowledge of Him.

Good
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted

to begin with , I am an agnostic,so take what I say with a pinch of salt.the first two verses grabbed me.I thought , here we go,got a good one here.thinking it was about a mothers love for her newborn,and the fears and tribulations of beginnings.then you went all fervent and religious,desperately trying to convert us to validate your own beliefs.don't get me wrong on this,if it inspires you or those who believe in deities ,no harm no foul,but it just turns me cold.but even though it bitterly disappointed me after the first two verses, I have still given it my highest rating for religious poetry,a lot better than most.you have talent,keep up the good work.but I won't be an advocate of it.being an eternal realist.

    ste7e: Thanks for your candor and respectful comments about the poetic structure. I respect every human's right (and obligation) to make choices that will guide their lives and I don't judge them for those choices unless they are harmful to others. We all have the right to nominate what makes sense to us. Thanks again for the review: HIS GRAYNESS

    a good even handed honest open reply..thank u .for allowing me to be the same.after all,a review is worthless if it is not honest.I try not to be harmful to those I review,after all what we write is a part of us made manifest,our children so to speak, and to have one spanked by a stranger, no matter how well intended, induces strong protective emotions in us.. thank u for taking the trouble to reply,and reviewing my review,we all need to grow and learn,and we do that by communicating,thanks for ur reply.
