This is a great entry for the Mirror Mirror contest. The reverse image in the acrostic was brilliant and works well. The image you chose and the topic also seem the mirror image of themselves. Well written and well done.

I can identify with the line about replacing jaded thoughts. So many are focused on removing wrinkles, when it's a tired mind that really robs us of our youthful outlook. Your entry is creative and insightful. I enjoyed it.

An interesting angle on the Mirror Mirror poetic prompt -in this Acrostic - sentiments familiar to us all - 'Reflect a bit of childhood bliss '- A great pic to illustrate

These days our mirrors show us quite a different story than 30 years ago - and it's a bit frightening - but a smile helps. And hope helps. And encouragement helps. So grin at your image and keep on.
good job

You have cleverly presented a duel reflection in mirror reverse acrostic.
The photo-art perfectly reinforces your worthy theme.
I see a well-penned, promising contest entry.
Best wishes!

Very well done prompt entry. This is the first I've heard of a Reflective Acrostic poem. That shows you how new I am here and with poem styles in general. Best regards. I will try this....Thanks.

A fin acrostic about one's reflection and there is so much more depth in the image than at first glance, especially when the image has aged, the mirror only reflects the years and not the wealth of experience, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

A very well-written mirror mirror acrostic reflections of what we do see in the mirror and what we like to see in the mirror. The eyes see all the flaws while the inner soul sees the perfection.

Well done! I like this poem. It is very telling and showed me a lot about you. "Reflect a bit of childhood bliss" is such a great line for a mirror prompt. Great poem. With respect. -January L.
