Kenspeckle

Jealousy

You are standing there outside my window

Waving your hand and smiling

I am feeling like I will run and hug you

But a sexy girl comes along

And makes your eyes bigger

Why not? 

She is wearing a see-through dress

And the curves of her body

Are kenspeckle to your eyes

You leave with a smug look

While I am here, broken

Gazing at the fine lines

I see in the mirror

[Eddie Davis]

The wonderful thing about these Word of the Day poems is that not only do we get to read great poetry, we also learn new words. Well done!

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

Thanks a bunch, Eddie.
