Mirror Mirror

MIRROR MIRROR Mirror, mirror, on the wall, what do you see? Yes you, fine Milady looking back at me, So, you're not the young woman in the magazine, Losing sight of her true reflection for a beautiful scene. You’re the best authentication, of the image of you, Makeup should not be a plaster making someone new. Close the book and take a look at a more candid scene, Picture perfect isn’t perfect because it’s not better than you. Mirror, mirror,on the wall, please know love is here, God is in the midst of you so, no need not fear, The other side is always appearing a shade or two more green, Let the calendar be the thing reflecting another year. Step aside, mirror mirror, give it all a rest, Put the fine lady to another test, Sweet sixteen isn’t twenty three. Trust the image of the lady looking back at thee Mirror, mirror, now reflecting a fading rose, Love the story more for how it really goes. There's beauty in every stage of the human being, Far more beauty in the lady than a mirror shows.
