MIRRORS


Mirror, mirror on the wall

Do you have to tell it all?

Where do you get the glaring right

To make my clothes look just too tight?

I think I'm fine but I can see

you won't cooperate with me;

The way you let the shadows play

You'd think my hair was getting gray

What's that, you say? A double chin?

No, that's the way the light comes in;

If you persist in peering so

You'll confiscate my facial glow,

And then if you're not hanging straight

You'll tell me next I'm gaining weight;

I'm really quite upset with you

For giving this distorted view;

I hate you being smug and wise -

O, look what's happened to my thighs!

I warn you now, O mirrored wall,

Since we're not on speaking terms at all,

If I look like this in my new jeans

You'll find yourself in smithereens!

With my hair color changing at 30, a little too much over the belt at 40, feeling my speed diminishing at 50, my tired body stopping early at 60, I read these post and admire all the wonderful ladies who are all so nice and I count my blessings for living such a present wonderful life.

The beginning of life, conception..

This is soooo funny and so true! I also want to know, did you write this? Curious, why do our bodies look worse in a store dressing room than in the mirror at home, is it the lighting? We can turn this way and that at home to make it look ok to our mind, the store has that gawd awful bright light! lol Ann
