Blue Eyes Dreaming
~~~


Not far it was from Heaven
'twas the very month of June
And the sweetest birds were singing
when first
she stole my tune
As if from out the bluest sky
an angel came to call
Quintessential
to Irish memory
with braids as I recall
~
The golden sun's shine o'er the dew
reflected through her eyes
like flowers
from a woodland path
her smile just mesmerized
With dancers wings
she stepped along
my song held in her arms
My blue eyes dreaming
hypnotized
now locked within her charms
~
"Good day kind sir"
sweet melody ...
embraced my very soul
With butterflies and rubber thighs
my tongue
I swear it swoll
My heart stood tall to brace my jaw
an lock the molars tight
The best I managed
was a smile
my voice had taken flight
~
Pausing
she locked her gaze to mine
reached out to my lapel
Placed a fragrant flower there
bent close
to share its smell
The moment stole my breath from me
I gazed in pure delight
Enchanted with her beauty rare
Awoke ...
to silent night
~~~

supercalifragilisticexpialadocious
there's not one thing in this poem that one could say's atrocious

Kind sir I liked very much, it's really quite well done!

I think that you and I and more will surely have our fun.

This is so delightful Rex, superb.  I love the 'tongue swoll' phrase and the fact that she's wearing braids.  You are a hit and so is your poetry!

Apparently not enough hours even in my day to catch all of the good poetry that sifts and shifts its way through these pages, so I thank the poet that popped this back up, just for me to read....

enjoyed immensely, Rex...you cast such images....

Just read this again and enjoyed it as if were brand new to my eyes. May I take a copy? I mean, it is so original/unique that even a rerun/reread feels like the first time through.
