'pleading Eyes'

his eyes implored for some warmth and laughter
the stench he carried around
told another story

Lol! This reminds me of the M & M candy and Pretzel Commercial...the one featuring the guy with the "hungry" eyes... Great job, Wilma! Merry Christmas and an exciting New Year filled with blessings and all the good things you wish for, dear! You deserve it, my friend. Love, Annalise Thanks for the visit!

You sometimes have to take a step backwards from the stench but you never know what sad story those pleading eyes have. My heart goes out to those who are in need.

ahh, sometimes there is definitely more than meets the eye-- the nose, knows-- ok why am I in such a corny mood? lack of sleep to blame! Seriously missy-- this is so true! Sometimes we really just have to trust our other senses, the eyes can deceive.... wish you all the best in Chris' kontest :) mwahugs!!
