Past My Prime In honesty I must admit I'm slipping slowly past my prime. I hadn't noticed transformation Happening to me over time. Though my memory needed prodding, When I forgot an old friend's name; I told myself I hadn't changed And still looked very much the same. But windexing my mirror in A seizure of fanatic clean Took the forgiving film away; The hidden changes to unscreen. I can no longer tell myself A candid picture of me lies. I must accept as fact the face I had refused to recognize. By Joyce 05/04/04 |

Dear Joyce I'm not into windexing and I think we all hide behind a 'haze'. Now I know why I am only in front of the mirror just long enough to run the brush through my hair. This is a lovely poem. Love Isobel ox |

Dear Isobel. I was up so early this morning that I thought no one would have been around, but I see you have been here clear from Australia. Thank you, Love, Joyce |
