Very sweet.
I believe all poetry should be read aloud. This piece has an encouraging voice.
Nice imagery and a great message -- strength and hope arise from within.
Thanks for sharing

A face to love you at all times ...I love this....it reminds me of this verse
2 Corinthians 3:18
English Standard Version (ESV)
18 And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord,[a] are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

Isn't God wonderful? That we can be transformed into His image .
God bless

    Thank so much for your beautiful review and I'm glad it took you to 2nd Corinthians! Wouldn't it be wonderful if everyone knew the power of belief and really understood we are all a real part of GOD...including God's Face?? Blessings to you Jenny. Vance

I do absolutely love this. It is so true that we are worth more than we ever want to believe, especially being created in God's image. Thanks for sharing.

    Dear Bobby Jo..so many thanks for your lovely review and I'm so delighted that you enjoyed this and it had genuine meaning for you....God truly loves us all and always wants to guide us in every moment of our life. Just a couple minutes in the mirror every day would certainly be worth God's Acknowledgement and even a smile and a wink would be loved! Blessings: Vance

This is a really very nice poem and a very good idea you had when writing this. Your first four stanzas were all 6 syllables per line then the style changed but I don't care too much about that because it read well and the words were lovely. Regards Dorothy ps The picture is adorable.

Yes, the reflection in the mirror of reflections
can be beautiful when your liveing right. And
you paint a very vivid picture of that. And I like
that. You did great with this piece.

Well written. Good flow, nice rhythm, nice rhyming.

Above all though, great content. The point you have free choice and there is always someone to love 'if you choose it' is very well made.

If everyone chose to became someone they themselves could love the world would be a much better place.

Very nice rhythm in this piece - it helped me read through your poem with ease. Mirrors have always been powerful symbols in literature and yet you've managed to find a fresh way to present the humble mirror in this piece. I know it's not part of the poem, but I also appreciated the comment you made under Author's Notes. I wish more people understood this important message. Thank you for sharing.

fk! i love this!...that is beautifully written you old grey bastard! haha seriously your highness i really enjoyed it
the only line i would have revisited and this is purely my opinion for the flow is the last line..possibly would have written:
"And our meeting would come at this very time
When you needed to know that you will be fine
So keep a small mirror wherever you go
And know the face that will always love you so

Good

Appreciate it. Well described and well written. I could connect to it. Words rhymed very well. The words used for rhyming is such a bliss. The whole piece of poem is wonderful but the stanza that touched is,
"I created light to present My reflection
To chase the dark for your protection
So join me now in gratitude
That you may choose your attitude".
It soothes the emotions.
