I enjoyed your humorous mono rhyme entry. yeah I get it, mirrors can be the worst. You made a good choice, go back to bed and turn out the light!Very funny. Good luck in the contest.

What a cute poem! It fits the monorhyme prompt as every single line rhymes at the end. My favorite line was "My hair seemed styled by dynamite;" because I can totally relate to that.

Your poem had me smiling the whole way through! The lighthearted tone made it such a fun read. I loved when you wrote about looking in the mirror and deciding sometimes it's just better to go back to bed!
Great job!

This is an excellent entry in the Monorhyme poem contest. The end rhymes are spot-on and read smoothly. The humor is creatively infused throughout the poem from the first line to the last. Your skill for crafting simple but hilarious poetic verse restricted by your chosen end rhyme is brilliant.'
All the best in the contest,
Eugene

Comment from Yolanda King
Oh, this is good! It rhymes well and it's absolutely relatable. The solution is perfect.
I sometimes feel that way when I look into airport mirrors. The lighting there doesn't make anyone look attractive. My solution is to simply not look, or that inside the airport it's all fake anyway so the image looking at my isn't really me.
In your poem I particularly like the line My hair seemed styled by dynamite; That actually made me laugh out loud.
I very much enjoyed your poem. Thank you!

You made me smile here with this reflective poem and I loved the line:
(I'd be thinner if I could gain some height)
Loved the rhymes, humour and sentiment here, love Dolly x x x x
