Mirror, Mirror

Have you a philosophy?
                      Look into the mirror now.
                    Is that who you want to be?
                        Smile or Frown will tell.

After reading, I checked to see it's placement because it is so right-on! Mine was a metaphor for people that everyone thought was literally about colors! I thought it was pretty good, so I was surprised. This is truly lines of wisdom that can sustain and live long after a contest ... CayCay

Thanks for the kind words, CayCay. Everyday is different for me when I look in the mirror. As for yours, I liked it. Most people probably overlooked the metaphor because you don't see blue or green people. Sometimes we just have to be hit over the head to get it.
