Once I looked into a mirror, the mirror before me now,
Seeing there many things , that now are distant sights,
The thoughts that roam the mind, I wonder what!
Has happened to the image there.
The mirror, that was before me,
Brought me places anew, and thoughts,
Of life of those I saw and knew,
But now the places are just a mirage.
The mirror, sent me far to find,
The places and the faces new.
Were privy to my eye,
But never the face but once appeared!
