I love the concept here. Your writing is also mirrored. That is very clever and the poetry itself echoes from the present back to the past. I've not seen this before. I believe it deserves six stars

I enjoyed your contest entry, Mystery Author. The image is super. I like the color scheme and how you used it to your advantage by highlighting the first letter in white. Your rhymes are great and the message is clear. I like the contrast between the two verse, too. Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

I like this. Time and the mirror are constantly marching on unfazed by atmospheric conditions or our protests. You've done a fine job in expressing how our lives change
through the mirror's looking glass. Thanks for sharing this well written work. Well done!

Comment from Justin Chopin
A very lyrical piece of poetry. I liked how you have the first part of your fantastic acrostic going forwards and then the second part of your piece going backwards but were still able to utilize your rhymes and sentiments to make them gel together as a poem. Very relatable because I find myself longing to go back to those simplistic and idyllic days of youth were everything seemed so easy and carefree. Well done.

I love the flow of your poem. Once innocent hearts are hidden behind masks. The masks will fall only in front of the mirror when no one else is watching.

Comment from Cindy Decker
I really like your acrostic mirror,mirror poem. I thought like the young reflection years ago, now I am a bit wiser, yet unnecessarily cynical. We have such wonderful ideals when we're younger; as adults we make compromises in our thoughts and ideals. It really is a beautiful poem.
Best wishes,
Cindy
