Notes About The Poem

Blue Eyes

Blue eyes that mesmerize
And share same thoughts with me,
Within their graceful beauty, contain the sea.

Thank you Shadow. I have blue eyes. I tried to reflect through my expression, the heart shaped eye in the picture. Hugs, Connie

connie, I must have read the contest wrong. I thought she asked for 25 lines or something like that. Anyway, I LOVE this. It's also the picture that appealed to ME. By the way, "contain" without the s. blue eyes contain the sea!

June 12, 2015 at 12:53 AM

It is words not lines, I just checked again. I fixed it. Thanks, Connie
