Blue Serendipity

Find the thing that gets your mind racing, and create dreams that have no bounds

Bubbly laughter amongst tired explanations,

Scowls in the morn until her cup of coffee,

Simple and complex all at the same time,

Still figuring out who she is meant to be,

 

Enticing you with those honest blue eyes,

With the little flecks of serendipity,

Coasting through the golden days of youth,

Sharing her love with everyone she can,

 

Changing directions as often as one could,

Leaving confusion constantly in her wake,

She can’t attempt to understand herself,

She doesn’t expect you to begin to know,

 

The fluxuating degrees of emotions and joy,

Blurring with the chilly days in summer,

Her golden locks masking the weary times,

Allowing an alluring figure to emerge,

 

She knows the game, and she plays it well,

Always in control, until she no longer is,

Feeding you little speckles of who she is,

Only allowing you to know the things she wishes,

 

Until serendipity morphs with fiery annoyance,

Laughter forced through her clenched teeth,

Releasing everything into the winds of time,

Giving control away, and letting life be free,

 

Golden rays of laughter bouncing throughout,

Her charming ways touching the lives of all,

Influential words flowing from fingertips,
Bringing families together, creating bonds unbroken,

 

A light to some, a memory to others,

Untouched by the hounding pain of desire,

She walks without the need to control,

For she is the serendipity in her blue eyes.

Thank you for entering my competition.

I thought your use of imagery was lovely, I could really picture the girl you described.

Still figuring out who she is meant to be

This line in particular stayed with me. I feel like this, even now when I should have found out who I was long ago.

Thank you for your words :)

A wonderful poem dear friend.
"Golden rays of laughter bouncing throughout,

A charming mystery, made of fugacious glimpses and dreamy impressions. This poem succeded in capturing my attention, making me follow the steps of the intriguing character described in those verses. Althought it is evident "she" is a real person,I'd lilke to think the blue-serendipity-eyed as an abstract creature, maybe a spirit of the irriverent Youth or of the disrupting force of Nature. The style is effective in the semplicity of the verses: no rhymes, few retoric figures and a direct and common Language, make this poem a sort of dreamy monologue, where the poet admires and (maybe) envies the mysterious character as she pass by.
Genuine and profound. Probably it would sound even better, if you applied a smart metric (just saying).
Bravo
