Description
As I stand in front of the mirror
Getting ready to shave
I look at the poor old man and wonder
Where have the years gone
Who put those ugly wrinkles
On that beautiful face.
Everything is a mystery
Nothing makes sense to me
In my mind
I am a young man
Chasing pretty girls
But my hands hurt in the morning
And my back hurts at night
I remember when nothing would make me mad
Now if I can’t find that damn remote
There is hell to pay
Mirror, mirror
Who put those ugly wrinkles
On that beautiful face
Now in my defense I just got a hair cut and I tried to have tired looking eyes and oh ya I am getting old lol. That is suppose to be a mirror around me. I need a little work on my special effects. I hope you like it

Magnifico poema e arte meu amigo. ainda mais para nos que já vimos tanto deste mundo a rodar.excelente, aplausos (5) Awesome touch of truth in our souls through life, the mirror reflects the image, but never the soul.

I put those wrinkles there, because I've got them to...wanted to share and for the remote the grandkids are always putting it somewhere.

I think we can all relate, or for some of the younger ones, they will experience it soon. Excellent
Nice one, Randy!!
Ohhh....wonderful concept my friend, marvelous writing, loved it very much!
Time is the ultimate predator, it gets us all in the end. Great words Randy!
Spot on. Well said and seen. About a month ago I cut 8 ish inches of my beard off but, couldn't bring myself to go clean shaven. My young man is still hiding inside my mirror. ;-)
Keep being young in your mind and in your heart my friend. :))))) I too have a few wrinkles, but I too feel like I am in my 20's. LOL!!!! Nothing wrong with that rite. Most excellent poem. :))))))) Thank you for sharing my friend. :)))))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :)))))
you doing good with the FX here . cool poem too
LOVE it and sooo agree. Dont know where all the years went
You're not doing so bad, Randy. I have Dorian Gray Dyslexia. I have a picture hidden in my closet that stays young while I get older. Nice postwork and great poem. I'm sure I'm not the only one that can relate.
Time waits for no one. Keep Healthy my friend. Aloha
Very poignant Randy, I have a face too!!!
I know how you feel...I just looked at the mirror this morning and said, "What the heck happened?" The mirror just laughed and said "Life! Oh, you'll get used to it!" And by noon, I did! Now, back to chasing pretty girls, but would someone tell me what to do if I catch any?
They say if u never look in the mirror and do with ur body as u feel u never feel old so very good writing on this hon awesome stuff.
Cool poem, Randy. I'm 60 and I still feel like a teenager, so when I look in the mirror it is always a shock.
YUP! Time takes it's toll. Excellent poem and work! :)
