An elderly lady head down wearing a frown,
Young girl said,"why ever are you sad,
she replied, "I never thought I would come to this"

The girl got a mirror, what do you see?
She said " an old lady looking at me,
wrinkled face,dull eyes,grey hair,
makes me sad to see me there.

The girl stood behind her, looking in the mirror too,
she said " I'll tell you what others see in you,
A gentle angel flocked in white,
with wings, that beat like the love in her heart so strong,
The wise beautiful face with so much knowledge to share,
The bright eyes showing the soul within that cares,
Hair of silver, that shines like the stars,
This angel of mine,
That I hold in my arms.
