Magnetic, electric, eclectic eyes,
That shine like frozen diamonds raised by sunlight,
Decorated by free-falling hair that parades and cascades
With the freedom of flight, that will best strike
Those able to see the beauty within,
that goes beyond mere skin
I’ve quoted countless of my favourite poems, but I do like to share my own work too. The last one, She Loved Me Once, was in June, so I was certainly due.

Eloquent, Alex. Beauty within is appreciated far more than physical beauty. If only more people thought that way.
Eloquent. What a lovely word. Thanks for the compliment.
It is. You’re welcome, Alex. 😊
Lovely, Alex. Best of luck with your muse!
Thanks for stopping by. I’ve been concentrating on other writing forms but it’s nice to write a poem too.
Keep at it!
Clearly, this is about me. I’m flattered, but you’re really not my type. Ha! This beautifully written. Lovely imagery and like the alliteration. These are my favorite types of posts from you. You’re so talented and your poetic side is wonderful. Mad props, Der.
Thank you for the compliments. You’ve always been supportive of my writing.
You’re welcome. Always a pleasure. Keep creating and stay you unless you can be James Purefoy, then, by all means be James Purefoy. Ha! 💕😎
My favourite line being ‘with the freedom of flight, that will best strike’ describes this admirable and charmingly written poem put before the eyes of beauty. It is wonderful to read.
Sincerely Sonea
Thank you so much Sonea. It’s one of those that just flowed. I planned to make it longer but it just seemed to end naturally at that point.
Lovely
Thank you 😊
Welcome
Such loveliness, Alex. You are a superbly eloquent individual.
So very kind. Had planned for this to be longer but it sort of came to a natural end at that point. Sometimes the poem has its own life 🙂
Poetry is a fine way to express yourself. I need to write more.
There’s never a time limit 🙂
Very true, Alex.
In the beginning when love was sunny and new! You take me back to that time when the crush of emotion is spellbinding. How beautiful!
I’m so glad you like 🙂
