Anonomus Scorpio Poet Villanelle

Listen to poem:

get ready- No other pair; compares beyond

No other pair; compares beyond
Beauty lashes out; to seduce a smize;
I looked upon; two magic wand

Brown is the color to which is most yawned;
But it is Earth's deepest well of hope; I surmise
No other pair; compares beyond

Blue of grey shade; mirrors all that are spawned
As sapphire gems; adorning cloudy tearful skies
I looked upon; two magic wand

Peridot shines, as planted fields, are lawned
Green; like newfound blades; of springtime ryes
No other pair; compares beyond

Found together; yet self-disguised, in bond
Hazel wins, versus, softest, ambers, tries
I looked upon; two magic wand

Direct through them; my love had to respond
Seeing her; that's simply when; all sadness dies
No other pair; compares beyond
I looked upon; two magic wand

Speaks Volumes November 27, 2023 at 3:45 AM The villanelle is perfect for emphasizing lines that need to be dominant and it suited your beautiful poem. I smiled at certain parts of your poem for different reasons. For instance.. " Beauty lashes out" and to liken the splendid colors endowed, to creations of mother nature, made simple eye shades come alive in ones mind, until she walked it, then none could compare. sigh, I almost didn't want it to finish. You did pretty good ! :) Anonomus Scorpio November 27, 2023 at 7:33 AM Thank you very much S.V.!! Your interpretation is spot on of what I wanted to convey!! With warmth A.S.

Paige Hind November 26, 2023 at 5:19 PM WOW! This is sooo beautiful. Gorgeous, wonderfully written, dear friend of mine. Anonomus Scorpio November 26, 2023 at 6:15 PM Thank you very much! I have been trying out new forms as of late I was not certain the Villanelle was a good idea. But as I wrote this it just seemed so right for a poem about eyes :) Warmly A.S.
