Her face I see in the world about, In rivers and mountains and sea, My love for her is ne'er in doubt, I visit beauty with eidetic imagery. She's in my dreams and endless thoughts, A vision splendid... pure in self, A being serene who couldn't be bought, By a man with little or blessed by wealth. So, atop her pedestal, she stands, A woman blessed with seductive ways, I reach for her with loving hands, But, out of reach, she always stays. She's an Angel of sorts... with her angelic way, With her pedestal gone - she'll always get by, For the sages perceive the truth when they say, That God made sure... all Angels can fly. Poetry is just the evidence of life. |

Comes from the greek word "image" english translation photographic memory. There has been many words that I myself have had to look up myself. Reading PIP has been very insightful. Thank you always for you kind comments. |
