Poem Category: In the Mirror

In the mirror
the self-drawing slips
from Laurel’s hand.

After his wake
father’s face
in my shaving mirror.

Laurel in the mirror
the many combs through
her rain soaked hair.

Window mirror
on the spring roses
their pregnant buds.

Home alone
mirrors in the mirrors mirror
his mother’s shattered mirror.

Bedroom mirror
night cream jars
bright in autumn sun.

Bedroom mirror
from a bad dream
the opening door.

Rear-view mirror
a drink can bouncing
from an interstate car.

In the mirror
how soft the square of moon
over the sleeping tot.

Lake mirror
a sprinkle of down
from migrating geese.
