Live life without regret.
Live for today because there might not be tomorrow


When I’m feeling
Bad
I look in this mirror,
Then I feel
Better
Once again.
I don’t know how
Or
What it is,
But
It works
Everytime.
Maybe
It’s the stickers
Around the
Frame.
Maybe
It’s the glitter
That sparkles so
Bright.
Maybe
It’s the I Love My
BEAUTY <3
That sits over my head
Or maybe
It’s just the
Stories
That comes behind it.
I don’t know how
Or what it is,
But I just feel
Better
Once again.


The author's comments:
“Mirror” by Brooke R used details to describe her mirror. The stickers, glitter and the I Love My BEAUTY <3 in the poem were described for imagery. She used white space to emphasize certain words like in line 2. She wanted to make emphasis to the word bad so she left it on a line by its self. She also centered her poem to add extra emphasis to certain words. She used punctuation to slow the reader down like at the end of line six. That gives the reader time to think about what they just read.
