1835, THE YEAR OF INVENTION OF MIRROR
Poem by Chan Mongol
October 21 of 2019
Tell me! Tell me! Tell me hello there, mirror;
Where you been two hundreds years before?
Prophets Mohammad, Jesus, Abram, Moses;
Buddha, Rama couldn't see own divine faces;
Even, Alexander the great, the world conqueror;
He had no chance to see own face in mirror.
World was running trillions of years without mirrors;
It was invented by a German and came to our doors.
German chemist invented thin paint which looks like tar;
One side of the glass painted with crumbs of silver.
In 1835, the successful invention of mirror was made;
German chemist was 'Justus von Liebig' as was said.
To know thyself and to see own front and face;
A mirror is very important for all of us nowadays!
Back side and inside are hidden and fixed innate;
Face and front are outside and a mirror is to narrate.
To show index of mind, we all want to look better;
To be likable, our front is well checked by the mirror.
Some people decorate own faces with seriousness;
Some got simple faces with smiles, kindness.
