A/N: Just an old poem I pulled out of one of my notebooks and
rewrote tonight. I've been meaning to post it for a while now.
Mirror Card's POV.

*
"The Riddle of the Mirror"
*
*
I am the lovely one
Who hides behind a mask.
But to know my name,
You need only ask.
I hold a secret and
It's so unexpected
You could never guess
It unless directed.
I am like Shadow:
I do as do you.
I am Illusion; my
Appearance untrue.
I am the Water who
Is still as the ice.
So you know what
You need- isn't that nice?
If you think you can claim me,
If you dare claim the power
To hold my life in your hands
And never to cower,
Then answer my riddle-
And answer it fast,
Or you'll find yourself undone
And your only chance long past.
Shadow and Illusion's mother,
Sister of the Water;
And to a man long gone,
I am a sacred daughter.
Look me in the eye-
Now, what do you see?
Since I am what I am,
Your answer should be: "Me!"
