THE MIRROR by FAIRFAX DOWNEY

First Line: AT GRACE'S HOUSE -- I OFTEN CALL
Last Line: TO POWDER NOSE AND FIX HER FACE.
Subject(s): FACES; MIRRORS;
At Grace's house -- I often call --
A mirror's hanging in the hall.
I'm mighty glad it's handy there,
It gives a chance to slick your hair.
Whenever we are stepping out
To movies or to play about,
That mirror's handy too, for Grace
To powder nose and fix her face.
