She looked at me lipstuck smile blushing stop; I declared the Beauty of her the forty seventh time in one night crystal blue eyes blinking bashful something mythical in her eyes something something luring to a kiss something about her pure and clean and something seductive lean raw and powerful loving everything about her and yet noticing those things little ones that I knew enough to know one day I might find irritating and the most obvious one of all that the myth in her eyes was me |

I can not find words to describe how much i liked this poem . It is as if it came straight from my heart ( are you telapathic ? ) I know how that situation feels so much . I loved it . L.of.L. Tom . Don't try, do or do not, there is no try . - Master Yoda - |

Reb, when one word draws you to the next word, then the next line...and you hate to see the finish, all I can say is WELL DONE! |

And the eye's have it! BRAVO! "and the most obvious one of all that the myth in her eyes was me" haunting lines here...yes, it think it's easy to get caught up like that, i think, and fall into someone's eyes and before you know what's happened... as always, fine writing, winged one! |

Thanks Doreen.... I think I was a freshman in high school when my Lit teacher read something I wrote and praised it as she proceeded to interpret it in a way completely different from what I had written followed by the question "how did someone so young get so wise?" of course I didn't bother to correct her.. lol... but that was the lesson that taught me good writing leaves enough space for the reader to reflect on their own experience....seeing that you did that... I'm satisfied I left ample space here... thanks for the read and the compliment... glad you could see yourself in this one. ![]() |
