Seren Roberts Poet Rhyme

The Not So Friendly Mirror

Form.     Florette 2.   Wrote for contest but didnt submit. (I chickened out)


Mirrors reveal what you can't hide
The rolls of fat your large backside
The legs once slim now plump and veined
The face once smooth now lines remain.
Yet dimples showing that you are smiling inside.

Maurice Yvonne September 23, 2014 at 4:55 PM It has just occurred to me. That's probably why entry did so poorly. Seren Roberts September 23, 2014 at 10:23 PM Your a ninny Maurice .....so funny ...Seren

Maurice Yvonne September 23, 2014 at 4:53 PM Oh by the way you forgot to mention this was a fantasy write. We all know poems don't work if you write "I looked in the Mirror. Perfect! The End." Seren Roberts September 23, 2014 at 10:22 PM I hoped they realised it was a fantasy write....are wellSeren

Maurice Yvonne September 23, 2014 at 4:48 PM I wished I had chickened out. I won zero, nothing, zilch, nada, nil, zip, shut out, a big goose egg. Great poem I think it would of done well. Did I mention how my contest entry did? Seren Roberts September 23, 2014 at 10:21 PM Lol Maurice, aww what a shame ....do better next time .rofl...Seren

Vera Duggan September 20, 2014 at 7:17 PM Very good Florette Serene, I hate looking in the mirror but what you see is you and only you and as Peter said it is what is in your heart that counts, excellent piece. Take care...............Vera.............. Seren Roberts September 20, 2014 at 11:28 PM Hi Vera, yes that's true, it is you that reflects back. Luckily so far the reflection is ok, when and if I catch up to the rhyme, I will accept it as being me....thanks for stopping by ....Seren

Jerry T Curtis September 19, 2014 at 9:42 PM I have a feeling you could have continued on with this, but I'm some how glad you didn't--nice write, lol Seren Roberts September 19, 2014 at 9:58 PM I am laughing, yes possibly I could have, was thinking of all the worst case scenarios, think if it was me would cover all mirrors. Lol....thanks for stopping by.....Seren
