The me that I can see
It’s fun to watch myself in a mirror. A mirror shows me what I look
like. A mirror helps me learn about myself.
It’s fun to play in front of a mirror. I can make up a poem about that:
In the mirror I can see
A copycat who plays with me.
I wrinkle my nose and he does, too.
His mouth gets round when I say, “Boo!” I waggle my tongue like this and
that. And so does he, that copycat.
He has my teeth, my ears, my eyes, And everything is just my size. Who
is that copycat I see?
That copycat I see is me!
I laugh at the faces I make in front of a mirror. But if I’m trying to
learn about myself, it’s better to look very hard at myself as I really
am. I see my face.
