I look in the mirror and see Wrinkles impressed upon me Some from good and some for bad I've earned each one, I'm not sad Each wrinkle tells a story Some glad some gory So many ups and downs Caused the smiles and frowns I gaze the mirror and ask Is this really me I take to task? How did time fly by so fast? My life is set in wrinkles cast Upon my face, I wear my life My sons and dearest wife Some happened in the fire Some took form because it was dire I prefer the ones that came from smiles A raised brow to see for miles A ripple around my face pointed up I wouldn’t remove a wrinkle, it's been my cup

Earned These Wrinkles
I look in the mirror and see Wrinkles impressed upon me Some from good and some for bad I've earned each one, I'm not sad Each wrinkle tells a story Some glad some gory So many ups and downs Caused the smiles and frowns I gaze the mirror and ask Is this really me I take to task? How did time fly by so fast? My life is set in wrinkles cast Upon my face, I wear my life My sons and dearest wife Some happened in the fire Some took form because it was dire I prefer the ones that came from smiles A raised brow to see for miles A ripple around my face pointed up I wouldn’t remove a wrinkle, it's been my cup
