She Wonders
is that really her
this stranger in the mirror
it makes her wonder
Artist: Norman Rockwell; Haiku Poet: Mike Evans

She Wonders
She sits on her stool facing the mirror
Her doll strewn on the floor, forgotten
She stares at the made-up stranger in the mirror
And she wonders – is that really me in that body?
She takes another look at the magazine in her lap
The glamorous image of Jane Russell stares back
One day she may grow up to be as pretty as Jane
And she wonders – why it seems to matter to her?
She senses there is more to her than that reflection
The body, merely a container for who she really is
But then, how amazing to be in this growing body
And she wonders…
Artist: Norman Rockwell; Poet: Mike Evans
