He looks of far and in between White hair with diamonds from the sky A wood of wiry glow around Expressive fingers, braiding braids Forgotten strands of gold-spun hair His feet swept pebbles in the surf Small indentations filled with silt With every look I hoped to see His eyes on me with how I wished To will his want to be for me Be loved without a shred of doubt To have his golden eyes on me To magic shameful into proud *** © Darren White 4 foot iambic blank verse

Beautiful love poem, my friend ... sensitive and endearing. The focused vision of passion and love - we see others so differently when their every move is a song ... a story we long to read. Love this!

Yes, a dream like love, not very realistic, but still :)

This was really nicely done my friend. The emotions have a life of their own in this wonderful piece of writing. I am not familiar with this form, but you seen to be very well versed on it. No pun intended. :)

Haha :D What I love about iambic blank verse, is that it has that cadence of rhyme, but it doesn't rhyme. You don't notice it doesn't if you do the iambic blank verse the right way. Thatks Chris :)
