Just a line to say I am living
     That I am not among the dead
Though I am getting more forgetful
     And more mixed up in the head!

For sometimes I cannot remember
     When I stand at the foot of the stairs
If I must go up for something
     Or I have just come down from there!

And before the fridge so often
     My poor mind is filled with doubt
Have I just put food away - or
     Have I come to take some out!

And there is time when it is dark out
     With my night cap on my head
I do not know if I am retiring
     Or just getting out of bed.

So if it's my turn to write you
     There is no need in getting sore
I think that I have written
     And do not want to be a bore!

So remember - I do love you
     And I wish that you were here
But now it's nearly mail time
     So I must say "Goodbye dear".

There I stood beside the mailbox
     With a face so very red!
Instead of mailing your letter
     I had opened it instead!!!

Mirror, mirror on the wall
You're no good to me at all!
When I look into your space
And see the reflection of my face
Is that person that I see
Is that person really me?

Sure, I know it's been a while
Since I was called a juvenile
But I really feel the same
'cept I'm stiff and a little lame

Hairs turned gray, getting thin
Lots of wrinkles and a double chin.
But I'm really feeling fine,
Work at something all the time.

Still I wonder when I see
That reflection that is me,
Which one of us is really real,
The one I see or the one I feel?
