Poem Category: In the Mirror

In the mirror
playing to an empty room
the pianola keys.

The bare bones of trees
the mirrored lake
thick with leaves.

Lake mirror
a pelican crosses
the path to the sun.

Lake mirrors
the red Pines
of a sunset.

Rear-view mirror
her rushed lipstick
at the traffic lights.

One finished,
shoe-shine man in his mirror
polishing the other.

Bedroom mirror
the fan’s rattle
re-winding the heat.

In the mirror
lace curtains strumming
the guitar on the bed.

Lake mirror
only moonlight
to support our canoe.

Mirrored
spring rain almost dried
between sliding doors.
