#Tanka (Double): Reflection
In her reflections
Vestiges of hopeful youth
World opening up
Deep lines surround piercing eyes
Chiseled stone lips once playful
Marching sands of time
Carving a road map of life
Across her smooth face
Each line a soul memory
Scars of a life wholly lived.

Amazing poem. You play so deep with the words. What I took out from your poem is the experiences of the life you gain with the age.

It is. Many of those weathered faces are. They have stories tell.
