How I see You (Loop Poetry)

by Hellon   Feb 17, 2013


Eyes that don't see
see the things that you do
do you wish me to describe
describe how I see you...

Skin so delicate
delicate as a rose
rose that will blossom
blossom as it grows.

Hair moving gently
gently you tease
tease...softly whispering
whispering summer breeze.

Voice so melodic
melodic singing birds
birds, such sweet tunes
tunes...enchant like your words.

Dress...rustling
rustling trees bare
bare as leaves fall
fall, the colour of your hair.

Your perfume..sweet fragrance
fragrance frangipani's bring
bring back many memories
memories of spring.

Yes...I am blind
blind, yet I see
see in my mind
mind you fill with glee.

@Hellon sometime in 2009...trying to express a blind father who's daughter is just leaving for her graduation dance....

Loop poetry is a form I created myself...

    Nice to see a special event poem nominated. Also nice to see a poem written in this style. Loop poetry can sometimes read very repetitive. It is easy to fall into a trap of justifying the layout and form of the poetry at the expense of the detail. Not only have you sidestepped this trap, you managed to throw in a rhyme scheme for good measure. I feel you captured the essence of your chosen subject very well. It has a lovely feel to the whole piece. Well written.

    Thanks Luce....yes, you are correct, it is a typo so thanks for pointing it out. Can't believe the error has gone unnoticed for so long on Shadow Poetry. Just need to figure out how to get back on there to edit that one too haha!!!
