Poem -
The hand mirror
Oh to be the hand mirror,
Of the lovely Annabelle,
To be admired so,
And to be hand held so well.
To recieve the looks she gives it,
The sparkle of her eyes,
Mmmm those pouting lips and smiles,
And to capture all her sighs.
Oh such a lucky mirror
What memories have you then,
What other things do you see,
Out of the sight of men.

Great poem. I once read how in days gone by, a women where endeared to their hand mirror and brush sets. Often referred to as vanity sets, they could be very expensive. When a man was courting a woman, he might give her a vanity set made from ivory, silver or sometimes even gold. Many times they'd be adored with mother of pearl or jewels. A woman who received such a gift would make an emotional connection to it, just as though it were a ring, and keep it near and dear to herself for the rest of her life.
Always keep a lookout for old vanity sets at garage sales. Find the right one, and you could exchange it for a new car.
Hi Kimmy. Great points you have made about 'vanity sets'. Still a very good gift to give I should think. Your comment on garage sales is interesting, what a treasure to find. I'll be looking, need a new car,haha.
Cheers
