Kesha Mashaw Poet Shape

Through My Eyes

Eyes
                                             Lengthy eyelashes
                                   Diamond      tears      catch the light
                             Beautiful         blue-green     irises penetrate
                         Black pupils       that deeply      reflect everything
                               Startling even      the      most attentive
                                        Searching the barren lands
                                              Piercing the dark
                                                       Eyes
                                                                         and
                                                                         the
                                                                        tears 
                                                                        freely 
                                                                         fall 
                                                                         on

Brenden Taylor April 6, 2009 at 6:33 AM This would be called a Shape poem, for future reference. Also, you misspelled "catch" at the beginning and "freely" toward the end. It's a great poem, and I love the imagery you create with the line "diamond tears." Good work, and I can't wait to read more! Best always, Brenden
