What She Doesn’t See She does not ever glimpse herself even through the radiance in your eyes she cannot perceive that she could be something of an enigmatic surprise she cannot ever envision the depths to which she makes you plummet nor would she ever accept as true she helped you reach God’s high summit she does not know that you see in her green eyes total devotion, loyalty, devoid of compromise she would not ever believe herself to belong and be the very heart’s tune of a favored song she feels fortunate just indeed that to her you fly God speed and lay beside her every night and bring to her passions light. 17 August 2000 ©Karilea Rilling Jungel |

she does not know that you see in her green eyes total devotion, loyalty, devoid of compromise she would not ever believe herself to belong and be the very heart’s tune of a favored song .... WOW, what romanticism... melody flowing with words... ... may I add ... She does not possess the knowhow or the art of love for she is herself art, a pitcher brimful of love, crafted by the Maker with a beauty special and surreal guided by Cupid's dart itself with love's own feel .... Wonderful work, Karilea... regards, sudhir |

Sunshine I'm one of those hopeless romatics. Loved your poem. It made me reminisce about the courtship between me and my wife. Sudhir I liked the verse you added to Sunshine's poem. It added that extra dimension. Garfield |

Nice poem Sunshine...sometimes we need to look at ourselves through others eyes to truly get a glimpse of the person we really are. I know I am my worst critic and thanks to friends here, I've learned to look at myself a bit differently, through their eyes and for once in my life, I like the person I see ![]() |

Sunshine, How lovely. I have selected a line from your poem that says so much about you and your inner beauty. You ARE a favored song! Love, Marcy "she would not ever believe herself to belong and be the very heart’s tune of a favored song" |

Written so beautiful, I suspect this could apply to you as your poems are so great. People with your beauty inside do not even realize just how special they are to others. |

Well, shoot. Is there a color for amazement? If so, I need that color mighty quick, because I never thought to see this type of response...but I'm hugging you ALL for it! Thank you! |
