Mirror'd

My mirror told me thatI had an entertainment ‘glow’,Then it clarified: Ihave a face for radio!
A mirror will neverlie. Let’s face it, it would be uncouth,But, trust me, it canbe selective how it tells the truth!
I think my mirrorneeds glasses, ‘cause it fills me with distressTo see myself therelooking like a big ol’ blurry mess!
“Wanna see somethingscary?” said my mirror (once) to me,Showed a reflection ofmy bank account. More scary cannot be!
My mirror advised moremakeup on my face. Said, ‘Just because’,I said to stopreflecting back so many of my flaws!
I really love mymirror, cause without it I’d not see,Reflections of thehappy girl I really want to be!
Cause Mondays do get knocked a lot,
With poetry, we all besought
To try to make the week begin
With gentle thoughts,
Perhaps a grin?
So  Karen , Charlotte, Mimi, me
Have crafted poems for you to see.
And now you’ve read what we have wrought…
Did we help?
Or did we not?
