Memories

Jack Horne 

Her dark eyes
So intense
When we met

Those dark eyes
Passionate
Spoke of love

Angry eyes
Flashing fire
As she left

Senryu for Eyes First Meet

Oooh, her eyes went from intense and passionate to angry so quickly, Jack! Love can be fickle sometimes, eh? Great entry for Michael's contest. As for your question, both you and Gert need to post the entire poem and enter it separately. Otherwise, the sponsor will be confused. Please let Gert know. Love, Carolyn

Her piercing eyes had you at first laser beam. You were metaphorically and then physically smitten. Nice job of sequencing the relationship.
