Reflections!

She has a good sheen,
That's all seen,
So true,

Seen new babies coming,
Glowing with health,
While their Daddy works,
To just keep them in wealth,

Seen marriage of minds,
So full of pleasure,
Watching T.V.
Her pursuit of leisure!

The mirror on the fireplace,
Stares right back,
Looks through me,
What has she seen,
What's she accrued,
In the depths of fleeting memory!

Teenage eyes awaiting adornment,
Old dear eyes speaking with wisdom,
As they try to disguise,
Passing time as it flies,
While waiting in torment,

Such sorrow seen,
Stashed deep,
Locked in the mirrored soul,
God forbid,
That mirror should crash and burn,
Letting those images break free,
Pandora's box unleashed,
Perhaps!!
