I really enjoyed reading this poem about our fear of growing old and seeing it reflected in the mirror. I like how you mentioned that there's still time to grow no matter the age. Every day is a new beginning, though this sounds cliche.

a very good "mirror" write. taking a good look at yourself in the mirror isn't easy. my wife can't believe, I can go days without looking in a mirror once..

Well penned...I'm me and liking each wrinkle and blemish is refreshing.
It is what it is isn't it?
I like your poem and I'm living your poem....living on the mirror's edge
God bless

    Thanks for reading. I'm at the time in my life when I'm reflecting on my past and fretting over my future. Growing old isn't easy, but getting old doesn't mean you have to act old... thanks again for reading my poem. :)

Thank you for sharing this thought provoking poem. As someone who is aging and fighting the battle of remaining young and vibrant, I can really relate. I shudder to think what my future self will look like. It is not going to be pretty :)..Good job!

This is one of the best I've read for the Mirror contest. You've done a great job rhyming in this piece. The flow and length were nice as well. I loved the topic of old age! Great job and good luck in the contest!

This is a good Contender for the mirror contest... I think everyone of us say the same things to ourself when we look in the mirror and see our faces change with age. I like your rhyme and rhythm in this poem, but most of all I like your positive words at the end.
