I like how you used this prompt for a meditative reflection on oneself and how to focus on what to change. This is a perfect poem at the start of a new year! Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from Mary Kay Bonfante
Oh, wow! This sad clown evokes an instant emotional reaction. Yet your poem offers hope. It does set forth the seriousness of his case, the urgency of his inner condition, and yet, by recognizing your fallen condition and admitting your need to change, you tell the reader that you are willing to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and make a fresh start. This great poem also offers encouragement to others.

Since this is anonymous chat I don?t think it is a rule violation to let you know the voting booth is open now for this contest so you can evaluate all entries and then vote.

I think that is fine. Thanks for letting me know. I usually like to read all the entries before deciding (though I might not review them all), yet hope that there aren't too many! I meant to check the voting booth but forgot, so thanks again!
Comment from Mary Vigasin
This is a poignant, well written poem of regret and failure but looking to change and be a better person in the new year.
The rhyming is well done and flows well. You draw your reader into the mirror with your words.
Good luck in the contest.

it's never to late to make a new start...
it comes with a change of a humbled heart...
just look up a see, the smile on His face...
He will forgive us falling from Grace...
so look in the mirror, take a new stand...
God is our Father, He'll lead with His hand...smile...
I love your poem...so very well written...and the picture...speaks for itself...love Linda xxoo

I agree that we need to take a chance on life, get out and live and love the person that we look at in the mirror. This is a very nice contest entry, best of luck. :)

Hello, anonymous,
Excellent entry for the Mirror Poem writing prompt contest. It's heartfelt. Sometimes it's hard to face ourselves in the mirror.

Comment from Sherry Asbury2
Such a sad face... but don't we all have from time to time? Very good introspection and a great decision to buck up and change what you can.
That artwork is so stark and I wonder what you really look like? Doesn't matter, just keep your eye on the prize and truck on.

Comment from June Sargent
Now is a good time to take an honest look at ourselves. This difficult year has either brought out the best or the worst in us. If it was the latter - then it's time to take the symbolic mask off and deal with what's been hidden underneath...great piece for the beginning of a new year.
