Her locks fair
East
West
North
South
About
The wings
Of each
Bent wind
Curls
Hot
Straightened
To hide
The rolls
And tides
Of blatant
Coiled
Tresses
Curly tresses
That mock
All the worlds
Girly dresses
Fatigues
Can't hide
Blatant blue eyed
Bright eyed
Smiling eyes
Formal friendly
Kindling
Kind
Ready to send
Melodies
Of right ripe
Lights
"Carolee"
Isn't she
Bright!!!?
And how I knew it?
Her tresses said so!!!
By how they bent low
Went "whoa!
Hello!"
Ergo
my went words
Like sent birds
To let her know!
"You're special"
Her facial expressions
Let go
And made no
Mistake of
This question
I reckon
I can't quite account it!
Far to many marks to measure
By leisure in passing
I'll shout it !
"You make an impression!"

very nice...as I read it I was thinking of the song "Wendy"..."Who's reaching out to capture a moment, everyone knows its Wendy."...James

I especially enjoyed the rhyme, the clever word play and the stream of consciousness in this.  

A minor matter, but there is a typo in the fourthlast line - you meant "Far too many marks to measure".
