MIRROR! MIRROR!

Mirror, Mirror by the River

Where the ruffled waters quiver,

Aren't you rather oddly based,

In a childrens playground placed?

We view you strangely as we pass;

There isn't even any glass!

We look right through you to the view!

Mirrors are not for looking through!

*

But little children now arrive!

Suddenly you come alive

As they run from side to side;

Hiding where they cannot hide,

Jumping through you, making faces,

Acting tough with rude grimaces;

Primping, prattling and pretending.

Your uses now are never-ending.

Why! I hear a Snow-White call

'Mirror! Mirror! On the wall!'
