Unforgettable. Poem by Fay Slimm

Unforgettable.

Rating: 5.0


The first time I saw
.................... those brown eyes
I was hooked.
................... LImpid, very wide
And inviting,
.................... he looked my way,
Stared with an
........................impudent playful
Gaze, saying he
....................... wanted me near.
I obeyed,
.............. and soon without fear
He swam closer,
................ head up and moving.

I noticed his skin,
........................... velvet smooth,
Then wonderful
........................ moments began
Seal looked at me
.............................. as we swam
In the afternoon sea,
.................................... encased
Within sun-spangled time
..................................., we raced
The tide in,
...................before he was gone
Into the deep,
.................. the seal turned upon
Me his look once again,
..................................... adoringly
Could I wish for
.......................... anything more?

This poem is filmic in quality. I can see that beautiful, brown-eyed marvel of nature, and those feelings of awe are palpable. This poem transports the reader to paradise. S :)

Your poem offers a combination of nature and human emotion. At first, brown eyes give no hint to who or what. I like that. Enjoyable! You describe sight and feelings well in this. Fun and interesting to read. Deborah Cromer
