Someone elses poem (I can't remember whose)inspired me to write this. The image I have of me... Maybe that should have been the title, Huh? ;-) I use to be a butterfly, but now the roles reversed. Now I'm just a caterpillar. I feel I have been cursed. My skin is not as pretty, as it use to be. My hair is not as thick, and gray doesn't become me. I do believe that I have shrunk. I'm now just five foot three. Something else, my wrinkles show. I'm not what I use to be. I know my legs are shorter, 'cause my butts closer to the floor. My boobs have gotten bigger and harder to carry, then before. My eyes are a faded green, My hips, well I think of hypos. My shoes always hide from me, because of my little feet and toes. Nah, I'm not what I use to be. A raving beauty I am not. Now, pardon me, I need a nap. Seems I do that quite a lot! If you can't make it so, you need to let it go!

Thank you Panne ! I don't believe this is entirely true , (at least in the eyes of others), but there are times when I avoid ALL mirrows! Especially when they are in a certain light! Kitty If you can't make it so, |
