As I get older
I decide to wear cosmetics
I hear that properly applied they will make me look
Less wrinkled
Almost rosy
I have purchased an array of creams
and powders at a salon, enchanted
By promises of beauty and youth
I sit down in front of a big magnifying mirror
Bright lights on either side of me
put my glasses on
look at my face
So many lines
Cobwebs and mandalas
my lips have lines
Even my earlobes have lines
I go through the tubes and jars in the order recommended
pat my face gently
That is the way to treat old skin, I have been told.
I look at my face
I take my glasses off
everything goes blurry
I think yes a big difference.

I do not want to litter on your site. I wrote a story about makeup.
Long and short, God made you Gorgeous!
