Iris

To me, yea, Iris is like bleu The scent of yours all imbued Behold your face all-rich, When I close my eyes bewitched Wordsworth's daffodils to me, Membrane of the eyes of glee, That gives light to me in turn, Light that misleads the morn. You are the genus iris, With sword-shaped leaves, Showy colored flowers, Displaying rainbow colors. Your eyes green and deep, Deeper than the depth, Stilled waters at even, Eyes, break of the day, enliven. I see a heart full of love, With the gentleness of a dove. Feel, in her eyes, March, September in her heart. +++ October 8, 2014 (A Repost) Form: Rhyme Dr. Ram Mehta Contest: The sweetest touches of verse by Gautami Phookan ================ August 31, 2014 Form: Rhyme (Song) Third Place win Contest: Song:Craig Cornish

IRIS, the goddess of the rainbow and massager of the Gods in Greek mythology would certainly be delighted by your poem Dr. Ram, as in it she would have seen her beauty reflected!
