Comment from Shirley B
Oh you and I must have the same mirror. :) I love the imagery. My son is six foot tall also. When I look at the mirror, I see a grandmother of a 9 month little girl, but I have to smile because my mother was never my age. :) Great poem, Shirley

Getting older sucks to the max if we keep looking back to the way we were. feasting on life now instead it's best we do as you write

Yes, growing older does have a number of compensations! I always enjoy reading your work because you make me smile with your humor that seems to always shine through!

I think there's always humor to be found somewhere, even if it can be somewhat cynical ... but also humor acts as a wonderful counterpoint to the "real" story, yes? thank you so much for reading & enjoying my dear - and Happy 2013!
Blessings

Comment from Taffspride
No doubt for me this is so worthy of a six rating. You have given us another of your well crafted poems.
This delightful poem, which incidentally flows so well when read aloud, gives pause for thought. I had not realized how like my own dear mother I have become, till on a recent visit back home to Wales, when one of my cousins said. "OMG you sound just like your mother."
I think most daughters would, (or should be flattered, I was)at suggestions in this great poem.
Here are my favorite lines:
feasting on life now
savoring
each flavor
in small
dreamy
exquisitely creamy
bites
of
delight
Because as we get older, that is exactly what we do.
Thank you for sharing, and Happy New Year.

Well bless you, Ann - so glad that my poem "vibes" with you my dear. I've written a whole one woman show about my mother and yes, those words do sound rather familiar, hmm?
Thank you so much for your lovely six! What a thrill for the New Year! Best wishes, Sharyn

Comment from Patrick G Cox
Hi visionary1234
Ah yes, the dreaded mirror, mirror on the wall ... and the best reflection of the passage of time, those infants that could now tuck us under an arm ...
Good poem, it captures the humour nd the touch of pathos it plays on very nicely.
Well done.
Patrick

I like the contentment this piece conveys, that while age is showing in the mirror, that isn't necessarily a bad thing. There is achievement in attaining the peace you've drawn from this station in life. I wish you the best of luck in this contest.
