Thank you so very much for your wonderful comments - have a great weekend!
Comment from River X
This is a wonderful idea of reversing an acrostic form of poetry to further illustrate the meaning of the poem. Keeping the end rhyme-scheme and keeping the syllables tight in each line really keeps the flow of a poem. I really love it. Good job.

You have fulfilled the requirements of the contest in a very good way. The picture fits the words perfectly and the words are a study in who we see when we look in the mirror as the years go by.

This was a lovely poem to read. Your language is engaging and the Acrostic format was a nice addition to the piece. It is an excellent contest entry. Good luck.

Hello, my friend,
A wonderful acrostic entry for the Mirror Mirror writing prompt contest. I sometimes feel like that. Great rhyme scheme and presentation. Well done.

Thank you so very much - I think we all do sometimes, yes? Enjoy the weekend!

I guess the mirror can tell us whatever we choose for it to reveal. Sometimes it can be harsh, sometimes romantic. It changes through time.
What a creative idea to reverse the acrostic so that it is a reflection, and especially appropriate for this contest.
Best of luck.

I don't like what I see in the mirror these days, so I keep away from them, heh heh. A beautifully written rhyming acrostic my friend, sweetly written, articulate and professionally written, excellent job, blessings Roy

Oh how wonderful it would be if we could get our mirrors to change our reflections and maybe change them for real, too!! LOL. I enjoyed your Mirror Mirror poem, and wish you luck in the contest. Well done! :)) Sandra xx

Comment from Therese Caron
A truly moving poem. You did a beautiful job with the acrostic, but it is the emotional aspect of your poem that really shines. I am 62, still working, have a wonderful family, and can not just see, but feel the beginnings of aging. Less tolerant of some things, but much more tolerant of others. This is beautifully written. I only give six stars to poems I can feel, no matter how well they are written. Six stars for this one!
