Comment from Shirley E Kennedy
Hi Roxanna,
I enjoyed your lighthearted poem.
This is such a cute reflection.
I think we are all scared by mirror reflections at times but we either get over it or just don't look, after all... it is, what it is.
Blessings

Comment from Artasylum
Too true this Roxanna... It is scary to have twenty year old vision and a face that doesn't agree... very funny and sad (for me at least) that my new reality has a towel over it.

Oh, I've seen how cute your are. No towel needed. I have mastered the art of just not looking at my self when I have to wash my hands or brush my teeth. Drying my hair, I just look at my hair, which is still kind of nice. =} Thanks so much dear. Rox

Comment from Alexander Vasa
Hello, this is a bit of fun and well written with good rhyming and meter. It is also very funny and the picture suits the poem so well. When it comes to the mirror, I guess you do your best and then let God take care of the rest, lol. We are always our harshest critics. I really liked this poem and thanks for sharing it, cheers, Ana

Yes, the Lord knows best and He still loves me, white hair and all. =} Thank you dear Ana.
Comment from Cindy McIntyre
I love the way you have written this poetic piece. It has a touch of serious, and a lot of sass, with a great sideways "glance" of a sense of humor. You made me smile because I could relate to the "I want my old reflection back..." Yet, when I was young and skinny--I didn't think I was! :) A fun little poem.

True, if I could look like I did in my 20's, I be thrilled now, but then not so much. We are never happy. Thanks so much for the great review. Rox

Don't feel bad my friend. There are some days I prefer not to look in the mirror too! You used very good descriptive words and it made me understand about the suing thing! I enjoyed reading and reviewing this. Blessings, Teri

Comment from Sally Law
What a beautiful little girl! Is she yours? I love watching my kids and grandkids in the mirror. I had my older son here for a few days. I caught him looking in the mirror at his receding hairline and shaking his head! My, how we want the mirror to deny the truth no matter how old or young we are. I enjoyed this Rox!
All the best,
Sally

Comment from Mustang Patty
Hi, Rox,
I'm right there with you. Sometimes when I glimpse in the mirror, I might catch a glimpse of my mother - long dead. Even worse, sometimes I see my sister. Those are the days I run and hide.
Very tempted to outlaw mirrors,
Thank you for sharing,

We might as well outlaw them. Most hate them and from what I see when I go to the Mall, no one is using them anyway. =} Thanks so much Patty. Rox
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem to describe the reaction when a small child or animal see their reflection in the mirror they immediately think it is another person and have no idea that it is their own image.

Comment from Anne B Francis
Ah, Ah this has to be a 6 very witty yes we change so much and sometimes just do not recognise ourselves. I wrote a poem very similar
'Mirror Mirror' and of course 'that could not be me' if you get chance and have not read please do.
Now have to get on with the housework.
Keep them coming

Comment from Tina Crute
Absolutely excellent work! Your writing flows so easily through my mind, and is treat to read. In other words, I don't have to slowly figure out what you are saying, like some poetry. All the words mix to paint a humorous picture that is a delight to read!
