Beauty

Your visage? Astounding! And so

I must avert eyes or I'll go

As blind as a bat,

For your beauty's such that

Mortal men can not look on you—Oh!

Shoot!

I only looked up for a second;
Your aura, it called me, it beckoned!
Now I'm in a bind
'Cause I'm sure as hell blind—
This ending is not what I reckoned.

I like it! Its original and the phrasing was very cool. Nice job.

[Samuel Dickens]

Blinded by beauty. Hey, it could happen. Figuatively speaking, it happens all the time. Your poem made me smile, Lisa.

[Orlando Murcia]

This was a great write about beauty
I wrote something simialr about what you just wrote
but you took it the extra mile
Great work!!

Hmmm...not what I reckoned either.

A very unique little poem. You must post some others...!
