The house looks much cleaner <br />The dust is not there <br />No stains on the sink <br />And no bits of hair <br /> <br />The garden is lovely <br />The grass a lush green <br />I can’t see the clover <br />Bare patches and weeds <br /> <br />My friends all look younger <br />Than when we last met <br />Less grey in their hair <br />And their lines seem less set <br /> <br />I gaze in the mirror <br />My make-up looks great <br />I look ten years younger <br />I might find a mate <br /> <br />The creams must be working <br />My wrinkles have gone <br />I think I might never <br />Put my glasses back on<br /><br />Jean Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-brighter-outlook/
