Eyes
Sparkle
And Glisten
Swimming with love
Gazing upon me, without prejudice
Or indifference that reflected from me
Lovely they are
Warm and true
Lovers
Eyes

This is a lovely form, one I'm going to have to try myself. You've done a very nice job with the flow and imagery, which can truly be tricky with strict syllable forms. I really like how you've captured the moment in this short form!

Please do and let me know. I would love to see it. I thought this form was cool to write with a small blurb to begin and a blurb to end. I only did 2 of these. and I brought this one back out. All and all lol!! thanks ~ Mykeee

Lovely poem.
I love the fact that you just introduced me to a new form of poetry, or at least to me is a new form because i've never heard of it.
This poem reminds me of something that my boyfriend would write and because of that it makes me love it more.
I love the imagery that is used.
Incredible write <3
Thank you for entering.
