A New Look

From an 
eagle eye-
my outlook;
I looked 
and looked.
My eyes on 
you-
twinkling,
as though
I’d been 
hooked on 
you.

“What do I 
do?”
My world I 
thought
you had 
ruled.
Me, still 
look’n at 
you was 
unbeknown
to me.

Shiny dark, 
long hair;
your eyes'o 
seductive,
and body 
so inviting;
dressed to 
thrill,
like the 
erotic dancer,
Mata Hari
of the 
World War 
One
you be.

Heart shook.
Eyes blinked,
and I 
stopped to gaze
as I agnized
you got a 
new look.
As phenomenal
as the 
pages of an 
award-winning
Poetry Book
and a 
masterpiece.
