“INTRIGUING HAZEL EYES” by Bill Charles ~~~~ What words do I write, about a beautiful woman, one of distinction, and hazel eyes, as her color. For try as I might, and my pen writes with feeling, I find them a mystery to me, so unlike any other… So these words I write, gently and with affection, as they are about your eyes, and things that they do… I have been slowly drawn, into their magic spell, but I really don’t mind, for they belong only to you… But hazel is a perplexing color, more than one by this name, perhaps there are three or four, all lovely I must say… Reddish-brown is one, which is so beautifully striking, like autumn leaves changing, on a crisp fall day… Greenish-gray is another, sexy is the most pertinent word, so soft as they glow, like moonbeams during the night… But when I touch you, and our eyes both meet, I see them slowly change their shade, in the pale moonlight… Yellowish and greenish-brown are others, delightful they are, soft in their colors, and they show this in many ways… A woman owning hazel eyes, I find so very special, always with beauty, displaying every one of her arrays… If you would show me all the colors, of an elegant rainbow, I would choose only one, that would be clearly acceptable… You are one in a million, my passions would never change, for I love those intriguing eyes that you own, the ones that are, that special color, of ‘Hazel’… ~~~~ |

Greenish-gray is another, sexy is the most pertinent word, so soft as they glow, like moonbeams during the night… But when I touch you, and our eyes both meet, I see them slowly change their shade, in the pale moonlight… well you certainly know how to turn a girls eyes... thank you Bill...I have been waiting for that hazel eyed poem of yours "soft blue eyes" no ~Wynter~ storm yet...still waiting *s "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

Sigh ... wonderfully descriptive Bill. You've painted beautiful words here. I fall into your greenish grey (with blue) ... they tend to change with the moods, and you've captured the camelion aspects perfectly. Best wishes, /Kit |

Evening Charisma, Perhaps your brown eyes haven't seen the one I did called "Beautiful Brown Eyes", and it was written especially for you. Thanks for your kind response and for the visit. |

Morning Charisma, I am so sorry that I haven't replied sooner but I have been in bed for two days with the flu. This is my first day out of bed, and still weak. What a trip that was, don't wish it on anyone! Anyway, I certainly thank you for the reply again, and am very pleased that you enjoyed the sequence of writings about eye colors. I did one on Brown, one on Blue, one on Hazel, and just completed one about Green eyes. I'll post this one soon. Morning tracie66, As above, I do apologize for not replying sooner, but have been down with the flu. Yes Tracy, I believe they all do tell a story, and I appreciate the kind reply. Thanks for stopping by. |
