Richard Lamoureux Poet Free verse

Blue Eyes

Blue- SPARKLES 
            from my twinkling eyes, 
                          contrasting BLACK pupils to reveal to her my attraction!

Blue- you will no longer be the  BEAT within my lonely spirit, 
                    for lemon YELLOW citron eyes fill my shadowed corridors.

Blue- Your Midnight is scented with PUNGENT aromas, 
                                        I desire the brilliance of WHITE morning glories!

Blue- Allow the SALTINESS of her ocean to grace my tongue,
                      let me float upon tumultuous waves and gaze up at a SILVER moon.

Blue- so DESPERATELY felt,
             revealing everything I long for, 
                                    yet I am doomed to see in shades of GREY


            Her spirit Sparkles
with the ferocity 
of a diamond black feline!
 My heart beat skipping,
  as I gaze into her lemon yellow citrine eyes.
  The pungent aromas of pheromones enticing my being.
            White passion pulsating deep within my minds eye.
                I long to lick the saltiness from the small of her arching back..
           Silver moon beams bathe the room and I relish what my eyes see!
                Desperately I attempt to see beyond the shades of grey---

                            for the thing I desire most has always been,
                                                  COLOUR!

Ken Carroll October 27, 2015 at 4:10 PM Excellent write Richard! Richard Lamoureux October 28, 2015 at 8:06 AM Thanks Ken.

CayCay Godwin October 27, 2015 at 11:27 AM I think everyone who read and understood the contest is a winner. Your write is very clever and I enjoyed it, but I still don't understand the contest so I wrote nothing. No jokes - very creative and impressive - the poem and understanding the contest ... CayCay Richard Lamoureux October 27, 2015 at 1:50 PM Thanks, it was a bit of a mind bender and I'm still not sure if I got it right.

Eileen Manassian October 27, 2015 at 9:25 AM Oh.....that ending.....you know how to bring things round to a climax. Great work. Good luck in the contest....thanks for the visit and hugs. Seems like both of us have our muses on holiday.... Eileen Manassian October 27, 2015 at 1:00 PM I posted an older poem just now.....I can't write....or get back into the swing of things...Hugs Richard Lamoureux October 27, 2015 at 9:59 AM I've been trying to touch base with all the poets who I've not had time to read. Sometimes time seems impossible to manage.

Viv Wigley October 27, 2015 at 7:37 AM Love the buildup then the runaway train second half. Nicely done, Richard- good luck in the contest! Regards, Viv Richard Lamoureux October 27, 2015 at 7:41 AM Thanks Viv!

Elis Artis October 26, 2015 at 2:21 PM WOW! This...This, this is a masterpiece! I'm not just throwing the term wildly or anything. This is truly a masterpiece! It's clever, unique and so creative. It feels so dream-like with all the hypnotizing vivid colors. Good luck in the contest! This is a winner in my book Richard Lamoureux October 26, 2015 at 2:43 PM Thanks Elis, what a thoughtful comment.

Kp Nunez October 26, 2015 at 10:32 AM Took me a few moments to realize that this is for the COLOR Contest. I then had an idea that you'll go through the senses road, as I've read before from one of your old writes about your being color blind. I am not disappointed. This is so sensual, even a legally blind would be able to appreciate all the colors described. Awesome piece, Rick! hugs Richard Lamoureux October 26, 2015 at 10:47 AM Thanks Kim, it was a fun challange.
