She Had A Thing About Blue Eyes

She Had A Thing About Blue Eyes

A Poem by Neville

She Had A Thing About Blue Eyes

 



she was a poem broken ..


punctuated


only by a series of subtle


pauses


and a steady flow of lies ..


she was known


to argue with echoes ..


find fault


with perfection


and frown upon sorrow ..


but make love


with a hunger and passion


she reserved


only for men, with blue eyes ..

Yes, I have known a few broken poems in my time, still arguing with Echoes long since passed.
It's at times like these I consider myself thankful that I have escaped this far from perfect life in almost pristine condition, if you don't count all the head blows and puncture repair outfits that hold my heart together.
But enough about me Rita... Where's my pizza delivery and its a penguin onesie you cheeky bleeder! 😊
Alexa? Call me an ambulance and tell me what you're wearing again! 😊

how extra ordinarily kind Andrew .. cheers :)
She had her flaws didn’t she, but then all of us are flawed. However, the blue eyed boy here surely can’t be complaining about the hunger and passion she reserved especially for him? Or would that be for all men with blue eyes? Now that’s a road I wouldn’t want to explore further. I hope her positives greatly outweighed her negatives and she is remembered with a smile and not for a broken heart. Always more to your poems than first meets the eye Neville. Have a very happy Easter.

indeed & back at you Chris :)
I'm certain I never met her. My father had green eyes, my mother brown. My eyes are hazel/brown. Both my daughters are blue-eyed beauties. All my grandchildren are blue-eyed. I think blue eyes are beautiful but it's what lies behind them that most concerns me; those windows to the soul.

I think you are write .. cheers Fabian :)
dearest Neville... I can identify with "blue eyes" that are kind and soothe a broken Heart. Your poem has stolen my Heart.. in that it is a "waltz" through my Life and beautifully created by you. I am certain many others feel the same. gently, Pat

I find myself more particular about men with darker hair than I do eye color, but I love how you wrote this line for line. Love and passion is a must have in relationships, and an even better component in the context of a poem. It's a keeper for me, Nev! Hope you have a wonderful weekend, and watch out - it's April Fool's Day! My best to you, always!
