The Mirror
Submitted by Angela Hickey


Each year my mirror seems much older,
Somewhat duller and a fraction colder,
The glass which always gleamed and twinkled
Now appears all scratched and wrinkled.

Appears more blotchy, tired and droopy
Confused and haggard, dazed and loopy
Sadder, slower, grimmer, glummer
I think that I’ve been sold a bummer.!!!!!


I found this little gem among my late Mums belongings and I feel it tells it’s own tale.
It all depends on how we look after that mirror.
