This No Letter A poem, Mirrors, reflects on aging and its many signs that are clearly visible to us and everyone else. Staying young is not a winning goal, but making our time count certainly is.

I enjoyed reading your contest entry. I know it's horrible growing old. I can't imagine getting any older, but I know it will happen. That's what happens naturally. This would have been a great contest entry.

    Thank you for the review and comments. I don't think that contest was out there over a day. It sure did fill up fast. It isn't exactly easy getting all the As out. LOL

Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level

Until you pointed it out, I read this poem totally unaware of what it was missing (the letter "A") and, instead, saw only what it had: excellent rhyme and rhythm, and a wonderful attitude, expressed perfectly in your last line. I'm sorry you missed the contest deadline, as I strongly suspect you'd have had a very good chance of winning.

What a shame you didn't make it. I'm glad you decided to share it anyway. Your poem is well-written, interesting, very truthful. Youth doesn't seem to last too long, not long enough, lol. I'd like to believe I'm wiser now than I was back then.
