Your poem is interesting and it flows and rhymes well. It held my attention and your artwork choice goes well with your story and you used good alliteration of m, a, and i, letters and sounds. Best wishes!

    Thank you for your careful consideration of my poem, Angel, and, frankly, for my accidental alliteration. ;)

This work has reached the exceptional level

Well that is how I have seen myself for several years now, this beautiful young woman in the mirror is always in my way. I can never see how I really look. Hmm I know I am not twenty something any more, but don't you really feel like it most of the time. Father time can be annoying at times. Great Story! I can so relate. Very nicely done with the "you are" s showing us who we are. Good Luck and Best Wishes in the Contest! Sherman541

The work is a humorous writing prompt entry that recalls the youthful physiognomy of the protagonist as measuring yardstick for his daily exploits.

The work highlights the protagonist as a writer, his errors at a much later age and how he would want to approximate his youthful way of doing things even at old age.

Excellent work! Keep the flag flying!

How you feel on the inside is the most important and you are just a spring chicken with your thoughts and words here, our shell is just a facade, poignant words, love Dolly x

I think this is a good entry for the 'Oh, you are... are you?' writing prompt.
We all tend to see what we want or hope to see in the mirror.
This is well said, with a little poetic license.
Good luck to you with the competition.
Sharon
