If I were to paint a picture Of what I wanted in my future What I wanted in life I would paint a true love One that was given to me From the Lord above Beauty IS only skin deep But love goes deeper Never following a flow chart It goes straight to the heart Maybe I would paint a blonde Like you see with James Bond Or maybe I would paint another Rosie With which I could get cozy Or maybe I would paint a brunette With midnight dark eyes That I would get lost in Would that be such a sin Maybe I will paint you 5'2" Eyes of blue With a smile so bright It would put the sun to shame It doesn't matter what I try to paint Cause without any doubt The picture I paint Is a picture of YOU. |

Hi Alan, I'm 5'4" with very long red hair and hazel eyes...do you have those colours?  Seriously, this is a charming poem, and yes, beauty is what we find within our beloved, not only without. Welcome to Passions, and thank you for this very pretty painting! ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Welcome to Passions... And what lovely work you brought... Beauty IS only skin deep But love goes deeper Never following a flow chart It goes straight to the heart I agree completely. Please check your email for a special welcome... K"He looked across the silky surface of the Severn... it was a famously difficult river with fierce tides..." From Jack Maggs |

One thing I have always noticed is that when I get closer to someone, and get to know them better, they become more attractive to me. Tis always the way with me. Nice poem, and welcome! ~Heather |

Hey Alan! Great poem! I agree that beauty is a lot deeper than what you can see. I know beautiful looking people who just got uglier by the word. And vice-versa. Very well said, and a pleasure to read! Welcome to Passions! Take a good look around, there are more marvelous poets here than you could imagine! Hope to read more of your works! Trev. |
