I don't seem to recognize
that lady in my mirror.
I may have seen her in her youth,
but I've got a sneaking fear.
She kinda looks like a relative,
perhaps on the side of my father.
But the closer I get and the harder I look,
Oh, no! My gosh! I'm my mother!

Boy!!!!! I sure can relate to this, I see my grandma every time I am brave enough to stop infront of a mirror. Good one.

Amanda,

A delightful poem! Quite true, even with the passing years I see more of my own mother as I look into the mirror.

For dreams are the tiny seeds from which tomorrow grows.'
