Mirror Mirror On The Wall


Mirror Mirror On The Wall



By Joeysguy



Mirror mirror on the wall

Who is the loneliest person of all



This mirror that hangs on my wall

For a long time and never did fall



I use to lift my kids when they were small

To look in the mirror on the wall



After a few years the kids grew tall

They no longer needed my help to look in the mirror on the wall



Looking in the mirror for many years

With smiles and even some tears



In that mirror I would see my life

Standing with me, my kids and my wife



Now in front of that mirror what do I see

Standing there, only me



I think of hanging pictures on the opposite wall

So the mirror would show me the image of us all



What the mirror has shown

That I will go through life on my own



My pain never goes away

Sometimes it's stronger each day

Imagination


Imagination

by Joeysguy



It was many years ago

I happened to be at a casino


After awhile I sat in a card game

The casino dealer never said his name



The dealer said these cards were of my future life

He dealt me a jack, and a queen that represented a wife



He dealt three more cards from the pack

They were two more queens and a second jack


I've dealt you a good hand, the dealer said

That's what you'll have after your wed


The five cards totaled to a full house

The three kids will be born to you and your spouse


Place them all in your heart

You'll have love from the start



It all came true long after that game

I found out that Heaven was that casinos name
