PERCEPTIONS MISPLACED

Michael Edwards

 

 

PERCEPTIONS MISPLACED 

 

Her glancing eyes, a North Sea grey,

towards his bold beguiling form

raised wrong perceptions on my brow

like furrows ploughed by passing wheels

yet soon suspicions washed away

as footprints in the passing rain.

        Nice. You paint your own artwork and write poetry to go with it. Great job. 🙂

          Thanks - yes all my postings here are accompanied by my own artwork - painting is my first passion but poetry is beginning to take hold although I have been writing for many years now.
