Mirror Mirror on the wall
a friend on call
The new hair cut
the winter embroidered coat
Thou reflected with sincere.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Why do we always brawl?
the pimple , acne or a bad hair
Why do you reflect it so fair?
A white lie will make me feel bigger.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
look , I am so tall
on the run , just a glance
Heavy literature , no fun and dance
till i finish University.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
who does in my heart dwell?
roses on my cheek
inhaling Cupid's aroma , eyes speak.
Life is a dream.
Mirror mirror on the wall
I am on the way to aisle , entrall
The kohl-ed eyes and jewels jingle
jasmine fragrance and blush mingle
Most happiest moment, I bask.
The umbilical cord was snapped apart
and you bonded with my heart.
with my unclear sight
I stared at the blue in your eyes, bright
reflecting back my tears,
I wiped them. Shrugged my fears.
Mirror Mirror, You can wait
while with my joy , I date
Mirror Mirror on the wall
my salt and pepper crown , dual
I smile back with content
every fulfilled dreamt.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Thanks for the times all
Time is nearing with every breath
hold my finger , a new journey , dear death.
Mirror is a constant companion, a true friend from childhood to death , reflecting faithfully without fear and favour. Though mute on the wall , it speaks voluminous truth , whether we like it or not.

Well said kalpana. Mirror is indeed a good companion. I wish it lied to me at times to boost my ego too. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, nicely done... the mirror is a part of entire life journey! Yeah, I wish it lied sometimes too :D
ReplyDeleteThose mirrors are there - for better or worse! Could use some those white lies this morning!
ReplyDeleteThose crazy mirrors. I tend to avoid mine most of the time. LOL fun post.
ReplyDeleteAwesome composition. Wish the mirror can lie :p
ReplyDeleteWonderful writing and really interesting topic.
ReplyDeleteKalpana, this an interesting post. Mirror on the wall can only reflect the outer beauty but not the purity of the mind!
ReplyDeleteAgree with you Ushaji.
Deletea pretty cool though on how our mirrors grow up with us...and try to fight it but the mirror is not the one with the choice in what is relfected...
ReplyDeleteMirror does not have a choice in what is reflected not humans have a choice. But its is the tendency of the humans to see what they wish to see.When the mirror reflects faithfully, human perceive it as a lie.
ReplyDeleteThe thoughts and the emotions behind the poetry so real and true. I also often feel the same way about a mirror..
