“Who Are You”
There is this gloomy face
Looking back at me
From this mirror on my wall
Strange looking woman
Wonder who that could be
Hey!!
What are you looking at lady?
Don’t you dare give me that silly look
It looks so bloody familiar to me
Could this be my mother?
Looking back at me
But how can this be
She departed from this life…dead
A very long time ago
You make me feel uncomfortable
Damn it!!
Don’t just stare at me
With that moronic look in your eyes
Say something you old fool
Don’t just sit there watching me
I had enough of this you see
Here take this
This is me see
Sticking my tongue out right at you
What audacity…Cry-key Moses
You did it right back at me
Molly old fart
How could you?
Here take this
Another one for you
You nasty old bitch…do I know you…huh?
You even have bloody eyes just like mine
Who are you?
Could you be me?
Or me you…Gee-wizz have a heart
Images are really mocking me
Shall I run to the ocean?
Or shall I fly to the moon
Or shall I stay and live here
Allowing this old fart
Mocking
Me

As we continue on Life's Journey,
it is not so much our parent's image
that we take on but the image of God.
A ripened fruit is much more delectable in my humble opinion.

This is great! There are many times I made myself cringe
because I'll say something and it sounds just like
my mother. I stand there for a few minutes to make
sure she is not in the room...scares the hell out me! lol!
A very Fun poem of the frustrating things we see (sometimes) looking back at us.
Loved it Tinka,
Thank for the smile!
I'm going to put this one picture and all up on my mirror!
maybe it'll change the image I now see?????

starts hitting you smack in the face and that really is a horror!
When you start to see your mother! Yikes! However, you'd be surprised how quickly it begins to look better when you accept it;-) Let life happen and enjoy it!
(hugs) and love,
Eileen
